MEETEETSE
MOUNTAIN RUN CLASSICS
The Meeteetse
Recreation District will offer two challenging mountain runs. Both of these
runs include a 5k,10k, and a 15k distance with age divisions in both men's
and women's categories. These awesome runs include T-shirts, post barbecue,
and wonderful prize drawings and awards to division placers. The Wagon
Box Social, which will be held on June 28th at 10:00am is located near
the historical Kirwin gold mine. What a beautiful location for a
mountain run!
The Meeteetse
Absaroka Challenge will be held on August 30th at 10:00am. This is an extreme
run on a beautiful course, you can't ask for more. Runners will have a
wonderful day. A post race barbecue will be held and we have great awards
and prizes to give away. Participants will have stories and smiles as they
explain the 1,000-ft. radical descent to the finish line. We had 37 runners
from 7 states last year. The competition was incredible with the local
runners fairing very well. This run is set up for great spectator viewing.
Trail Runners Magazine has picked the Absaroka Challenge to be one of
120 mountain runs to be part of the trophy series. This means that a point
system is in place and the runners with the most points in various age
divisions win great prizes. Trail Runner magazine announces its 2006
TROPHY SERIES, a United States and
Canada
point series of over 120 selected trail races (from March 1 to
September
30). All participants racing in the (RDs insert your race name

be automatically entered in the Trophy Series. As 2006 title
sponsor,
La Sportiva is offering a GRAND PRIZE PACKAGE that includes a trip
for two
to the 2006 Dolomite Sky Race in Italy. The runner who completes the
most 2006
Trophy Series races will win the grand prize. PLUS, Trail Runner
will present
18 prize packages for the top point scorers. All racers
finishing
a registered TROPHY SERIES race receive points in either of two
divisions:
marathon and shorter distance (26.2 miles and shorter); or ultra
