Bring Your Shoes!

Not only should you bring the shoes you will be wearing, but bring gently worn shoes to donate to Wendy Marszalek's Shoes For Success. Wendy will be collecting shoes at the start of Catherines for this excellent program.

Trail Maintenance Day, June 27

Anyone who would like to go out and help clear the CFA trail, I am heading there this Sunday and would like some company. Let me know if you have any interest. I have extra tools for a couple people.

CFA GPS GPX URL

If that title made any sense to you then you are into maps. We are fortunate to have Bill Sublett's wonderful GPS Tracker, which you can use to construct a map and elevation profile of the Catherines course.

Updated Entrants List

As will be done multiple times prior to raceday, I have uploaded the newest entrant list for your viewing pleasure. If you moved to the Runner List, I should have already let you know. Anyone on that Runner List who finds they will not be able to run, please let me know as soon as possible so I can let someone else run in your place.

What is a FA?

I have had a couple of inquiries about refering to Catherines as 'FA', versus spelling out the words. No, the name of the run has not changed! It is just that many email filters have had some issues with the spell-out words in the past, so 'FA' gets us past that.

Entries Open on Thursday, June 3rd for the 2010 CFA50k

Enter by sending your name and email address where you want to be contacted about the run. Send your entry to:

Getting Ready for MMT / CFA

I am heading to Costco tonight to purchase mass quanities for the Camp Roosevelt Aid Station of MMT. This yearly ritual at Costco gets me into the CFA frame of mind. I start thinking logistics, changes, food choices, lessons learned, and any needed improvements off of previous years. Any suggestions? Many of the changes that have come about over the past 11 years at MMT have been suggested by the CFA runners. Let me know if you have any ideas!

The Date for CFA 2010 Is.....

July 24, 8am

Entries will begin after the MMT dust settles.

The date for the 2010 is ...., Well, still up in the air. There are a couple things being juggled that need to settle first. Coming soon, very soon!
