NEW B.S. !!
Tired of our old B.S? Well how about a whole LOAD of NEW B.S.!!.
We are excited to bring to you a NEW, earlier in the year date change. This lays smack dab in the middle of all the BIG spring races to keep you training through..
Not Good enough?.
How about lower more pocket friendly race entries to keep you enticed to try our Bit O' Baby Shippey.
That all sounds TOO nice of us, though......
So, let us really send you in a tantrum and reverse the course for this year, SAME hills only UP those crushing DOWNS and DOWN those laboring UPS!
Sounds easier, right? We feel it actually runs HARDER, but don't take our word for it.
Introducing: Baby Shippey
This is a no frills, CUPLESS event ready to test your mettle.
Disclaimer:
This is not your grandparents kind of trail, this will beat you down and have you yelling and screaming, "This is B.S"
We take you on rugged trails that feature large rocks and boulders, of which may (and will) have you using all your limbs to navigate up OR down through. You will run on rough off camber sections of primitive trail, (the half)featuring a massive narrow switchback of loose gravel and not one BUT two powerlines, one up and one down.
This race will feature an incredibly fast jeep road(but save those legs) and the properties biggest ascents and descents leaving your quads screaming in terror and your lungs heaving for air.
Don't come crying to us when our Baby wears you down.....
The B.S. Half
The B.S. Half will consist of rugged rock traverses, fast jeep roads, several incredibly steep descents as well as some of the properties BIGGEST climbs. These are gravel, powerline and ATV paths. In addition we throw you down a rugged narrow switchback keeping you on 'edge' of the steep gravel descent. All of which will leave you crying, "This is B.S."
