In theory would you be interested in this format again on 1/1/2025? (A Wednesday). Because of park size limitations, we had a limit of 60 runners, and it sold out 2 months before the race. (Had 25+ on waitlist at various times, and dozens more inquiring to get in.

Because of the location (which got 5 ⭐️ reviews) I would keep it there (maybe change up the course slightly) but would need to stick with 60 again.

In theory. In theory….

A Groundhog Day: “A situation in which events that have happened before happen again, in what seems to be exactly the same way.”

The Groundhog Ultra 10x5K (50K) and 5x5K (25K) was a good one. Held at my favorite local trail in Englewood, FL, 60 runners (limited do to park size) took on the challenge of running a 5K at the top of each hour for every hour.

Congrats to Nick Baxter and Loan Vo on their winning performances in the 50K and to Brian O’Connor and Diana Dusenbury for their Ws in the 25K.

I also issued a “fun” challenge right before the 10th and final 5k of the race: Any runner who could run their fastest 5K of the race on that final loop when win free entry for life into my races. Two were up to the challenge: Congrats to Ken Snavely and Rene Swanton on the feat (I’m just glad it was only two!)

Trails for The Groundhog 50K (10x5K) are nice and dry, believe it or not. Chance of rain has dropped dramatically. Aid station snacks are ready to go. Remember we will have pizza after the 5th 5K (end of the 25k and midway through the 50K). See everyone tomorrow. Race starts at 8AM, gates open at 7AM.
