We've partnered with the City to bring all our summer fun to the winter. We'll have the beautiful and warm Riley Lodge for pre and post race and the great trails of Washington Grove to play in. Plenty of parking on either side of the lodge. Start and finish will be right across the street from the lodge.

What do you get: A super cool mid week low key trail race in winter fun. Chip timing included along with post race food. After race party at Riley Lodge.

If you register for the Series by Jan. 6th you'll get:

  • 6 crazy races that will be a ton of fun
  • Chip timing for all races by YellowJacket Racing
  • Plenty of post race food (it's a Fleet Feet event you know there will be food)
  • Door prizes at each race from our series sponsors.
  • Overall and age group awards given out for series scoring after the last race.
  • A limited edition Snow Cheap shirt to go with that sweet Dirt Cheap shirt

 

Choose your category, snowshoe or no snowshoe. Once you sign up for the series and declare a category that is the category you'll be in for the entire series.

We run with or without snow. If by chance there is a state of emergency due to a storm we'll take that night off.

Other Pertinent Items:

•   If there isn't enough snow, it will be a trail race and no snowshoes. It is the participants responsibility to make sure they find out if its snowshoe or not
•   Don't follow the person in front of you - you can't guarantee they know where they are going, then poof your all of a sudden off course
•   Pay attention and heed all signs
•   Come with a sense of humor and have fun
