Dances With Dirt

http://dwd.runningfitsites.com/hell-home

5 Person Team
Relay, each member running 3 of 15 legs. Each leg averages 4 miles so over the
course of a day, each runner covers around 12 miles. Teams drives a vehicle to
the next exchange and the fire drill continues ...



An extreme
course, team themes, vehicle decorations, costumes and endless planning are the
back drop for an adventure that adds up to much more than its parts.



Each leg has or
will become legendary.  Each leg is described
and rated in difficulty so the team can meet beforehand and choose who to abuse
... we mean, who to run what. Basically, a difficult, wicked on and off trail
run with stupid spots. Stupid spots include swamp crossings, river crossings,
hills too steep to climb and can only be a butt slide down. Did we mention
poison ivy, thorns, poor marking, bad (no) footing, a waiver that mentions your
death 3 times and that we charge you for this?

The legs start
and finish at exchange areas where the team is waiting to tag off and send the
next runner on their way. One vehicle per team, a vehicle that will be trashed
and smell bad at days end, ideally, 4 wheel drive but we'll be there to push
you out if the parking is muddy!
