My Grandson, at Mud and Muck 5K, being helped by Laurie "Nerdo" Euler.

I've been REALLY BUSY of late, both at work and running. I promise that I'll post some race reports and fantastic photos, soon. Until then...

The Trail Nerds have had some great media coverage, of late. Here are some of the various articles, podcasts, etc:

Wow! Trail Nerds are famous! While the PNW, a haven for world class trail runners I might add, remains in the wings. Who's your PR firm?

The Trail Nerds and I just go by word of mouth. Dirty, muddy mouth, at that.

We're more of a movement than a club.
