ALL races in the 2024 Trail Mix Series are complete!

There are 14 women who qualified for final scoring in the 2024 Trail Mix Series.

Lindsey Felling was at the top again for her FIFTH consecutive Trail Mix Series Win. Lindsey won Mudders & Grunters plus both Spring and Fall Run the Farm. She also had a top performance at the Leatherman’s Loop (8th). Lindsey completed four Trail Mix races in 2023.

Cassandra Ring was second overall and won the F30-39 category with five races completed.

Barbara Basbanes Richter was third overall and won the F40-49 category with four races completed. Barbara ran in ALL SEVEN of the 2024 Trail Mix races!

Teren Block was fourth overall with four races. Allison Bell was fifth overall with four races.

Cheryl Broas was sixth overall and first in the F60-69 category with four races.

Emily Rebori was #7 overall with 5 races.

Celine Varin was #8 overall and finished 5 races.

Tania Levine and Amy Falder rounded out the Top 10 with 4 races each.

Mary Brower ran ALL SEVEN 2024 Trail Mix series races!

There are 44 men who qualified for final scoring in the Trail Mix Series.

Eamonn Sullivan captured the 2024 Trail Mix overall title and ran in every race in the 2024 Trail Mix Series.

Eamonn won Mudders & Grunters, Leatherman’s Loop, both Spring and Fall Run the Farm races, Where the Pavement Ends, and Raven Rocks. He also had a second place finish at Paine to Pain. Since he completed all seven trail mix races he was able to drop his “low” scores and repeat with a 400 point total finish for the third time in the Trail Mix. Eamonn is the only runner to achieve this feat (now three times in a row!)

Chris Irwin ran in six of the seven Trail Mix races in 2024 and ranked second overall and first in the M50-59 category. The only race he missed in 2024 was Mudders & Grunters where he is the race director.

Edmund Dee ran in four races and got third place overall, winning the M40-49 category.

Paul Viscontini ran in five races and placed 4th overall and second in the M40-49 category.

Todd Henrich ran in six races, came in 5th overall, and was #2 in the M50-59 category.

Daniel Hannon was 6th overall and first in the M30-39 category after completing four races in the series.

Ethan Knecht was #7 overall and was a close 2nd in the M30-39 category.

Jordan Cramer was #8 overall with 5 races completed.

Gerry Sullivan and Harry Chiel round out the top 10 with 4 and 5 races completed, respectively.

Timothy Harrison was first in the M14-18 category with 4 races completed.

Jacob Tabs was first in the M20-29 category.

David Flynn took first in the M60-69 category.

Ed Moore topped the M70-79 standings for the third straight year and also finished ALL SEVEN 2o24 Trail Mix Series races.

[This post is available online at https://trailmixseries.org]

FIVE races in the 2024 Trail Mix Series are complete!

There are TWO REMAINING Trail Mix Series Races (see links below).

Run the Farm 10/27 • Raven Rocks Run 11/10

We have sorted the races to date by best 4 races scored to date (omitting the lowest race if 5 races were run).

This highlights the runners who have completed more Trail Mix Series races over the runners who placed higher in the standings but have not run as many races in the series.

Those other runners might potentially catch some of the higher runners if they do more races in the series. These standings reflect the cumulative points effort to date – and you can always sort the table by average per race if you want.

Women’s Series
There are 47 women who have raced in 2 or more Trail Mix Series races in 2024. Many have run 3 or more races. Any who have finished 4 or more have qualified for automatic lottery selection after entering into the Leatherman’s Loop Lottery in 2025.

In the women’s 2024 trail mix series, Barbara Basbanes Richter has finished all five races to date in the 2024 Trail Mix. Barbara maintains her points lead over Lindsey Felling who stays in second place in total series points with three races compete.

Barbara along with Mary Brower are the only women who have finished all five of the 2024 races to date. Mary is in 7th place overall.

Cassandra Ring is third overall with three trail mix races completed. Teren Block is fourth and Allison Bell is fifth.

Emily Rebori and Mary Brower are sixth and seventh. Rounding out the top 10 are Celine Varin, Amy Falder, and Mary Fasciana.

Men’s Series
There are 110 men who have raced in 2 or more Trail Mix Series races in 2024. Many have run 3 or more races. Any who have finished 4 or more have qualified for automatic lottery selection after entering into the Leatherman’s Loop Lottery in 2025.

Eamonn Sullivan has placed first in each of the four Trail Mix Races this year and is ranked first overall in the series. It is now mathematically impossible for anyone but Eamonn to finish first in the men’s 2024 Trail Mix Series. Congratulations to Eamonn!

The battle for second place is on! It is currently held by Chris Irwin with Todd Henrich third overall. Todd has a lower than normal showing in the Leatherman’s Loop and if he drops it with a top showing in one of the last two races he will close the gap with Chris. Of course if Chris continues as he has run then he will be tough to catch.

Gerry Sullivan is ranked fourth overall with four races completed to date. He can also close the gap with a top finish in one of the next two races.

Josh Omin is in fifth place with good finishes in four of the five races to date. Edmund Dee is in sixth place with only 3 races complete. Ed can vault into 2nd place with a top 3 showing in Run the Farm and/or Raven Rocks.

Paul Viscontini is currently in seventh place after three races and has a great average. He will be very close to 2nd place as well with a top 3 finish in an upcoming race.

Aryeh Abelow is in eighth place with Ethan Knecht and Jordan Cramer notching 9th and 10th places respectively.

These standings are based on the best 4 races total points earned to date so they highlight and favor runners who have completed more Trail Mix Series Races. As we get closer to series completion the standings will change and some of the runners who have fewer races but higher standings will pop up higher in the standing to take over some of the top spots — but they have to finish the races first!

We are looking forward to see what Run the Farm brings on October 27th as the Series continues in October.

The standings list will shrink after we add the sixth race which will cause eligible runners with 3 races or more to be shown. Don’t let yourself fall off the standings!

If you haven’t started the 2024 series yet — you don’t need to run in the series to race in these trail races – they are open to any who want to run! When you are ready for the challenge, we’re here for you!

The remaining races in the series are:

Run The Farm (Oct 27)
Raven Rocks Run (Nov 10)
Sign up today! Hope to see you on the trails!

Next Standings Update will be published after Run the Farm.

Please let us know any errors or omissions. Thanks!
