The pandemic has played havoc with a lot of our lives and traditions this year and one of them that it interfered with is the BRR. For the first time in 5 years F3RVA did not field a team. So….we still need to keep our bodies moving and have some fun. But do it in a pandemic friendly way. For that reason, we are going to do a CSAUP event, but not get the whole group together at once.
When: Weekend of October 23. Starting window opens at 12 noon on Friday and ends midnight Sunday night.
Where: Capital trail, out and back from Shiplock Park to Jamestown. Total miles ~ 103.
Teams: Running or biking teams. Running teams of 1 to 8 and biking teams of 1 to 4. I will publish the transition areas for the relay the week before the race. The legs will be approximately 4 – 8 miles per leg for running and 10 – 15 for bikers.
How: Get your team together, decide on a starting time, run the race and post the times. There will be prizes (both good and bad).
I am sure there are a million questions, so I am reopening my office hours. Should you have a question, complaint or any other comment, I can be reached on my cell phone between 9:00 and 9:01 GMT every other Thursday.

Been looking for this pre-blast for so long I forgot about the potential event.
Anyone want to go out and cheer TYA on as he takes this on solo?
does that really say “Running teams of 1 to 8” like 1 pax running the 100 miles solo????
Yep, we have one guy that is currently training for a hundred miler. A couple of our PAX have completed 100 milers, and a couple of the PAX ran it one way in May. So why the heck not. Probably won’t happen with 1 or 2 but wanted to leave it open.
