I know that everyone here is just in love with running and all things of the sort... But i wanted to let the good people of MTBNJ know that NYARA (the adventure racing club that i race for) is hosting our annual Hike a Thong on Feb 6 at Mahlon Dickerson
Heres the FAQ

yes, everyone gets a NYARA branded thong!

you dont have to wear it, but extra cool points if you do

theres not a whole lot of room for man parts in the thong...so wear it over your clothing unless you want to get arrested

there are 3 courses for the day 5/10/15 miles

this is not really a race..its more of a fun organized trail day

we will be providing pre marked maps, there will be no tape or trail marking done by us

in addition the the thong, finishers get another finishing prize TBD

this is not a biking event, as some of the trails we are permitted to use in Mahlon Dickerson do not allow bikes

im planning to have some light food choices at the end of the run (bagels and snacks/candy and hot cider/coca)

So do people hike it or run it?
its a mix of both. Ive been a participant the past few years and ive always run it. Ive also been the "winner" a few times..so that just goes to show that the competition level isnt very high. theres always a group of people who run the whole thing, and a group that goes for a hike
 
I'll be back again. Skyline was a blast last year, also the Fool's Rogaine in Ringwood should be great.

I know we have some poeple here who get excited about snowshoeing. and with any luck this year we will have a decent base of snow by Feb 6. So if there is snow on the ground then take out the snowshoes and come stomp down some trails to get them ready for the skinny MTB tires!
