Sacramento Bar Meet
May 19th, 2024 - Another beautiful Spring day!
The mild spring day offered a perfect backdrop to Kyle Poland's first go at setting five courses for a full B-meet. As expected, he came through with interesting and challenging courses with some great views. The rich spring vegetation and the constantly changing human settlements in the area, meant some of the smaller trails had disappered and new ones had sprung up. This added some unintentional additional challenges that fortunately only affected the advanced courses. Sorry to all of you who got tripped up by this.
As usual, we had a great mix of people; families with kids, local long time runners, new faces and a few seasoned veterans from the Bay.
A big thank you for all who came out for the event and gave it your best shot!
We will return on October for a beginner event at Orangevale Park.
Post race snacks and debrief!
