Photos & Quick Recap from the 2014 Rock the Ridge!
What an Epic weekend of trail racing here in the local area! All MPF clients and athletes had PRs, congratulations! We know what it takes to have the courage to take the challenge of starting one of these races, big kudos to all. Another big congratulations goes out to Ben Nephew who continues to amaze us with his performances. He broke his own course record at the Rock The Ridge 50, in the time of 5:58! On the other end, 2 men who embodied the spirit of ultrarunning were Norman and Dan, ages 75 & 68 finished their first 50 miler in under 13 hours! As someone from Rock The Ridge said "so whats your excuse?”. Nice work everyone! The 2014 season is off to a strong start!
Below are some photos and a few quick videos from the Rock The Ridge 50. Click here for our full gallery on Facebook.
This year I was fortunate to be able to participate in the Rock the Ridge mile Endurance challenge at the Mohonk Preserve. In 2014 this was my first 50 miler. I registered in 2015 but had to defer because of Plantar Fasciitis. It was a long journey for my recovery so the word GRATITUDE can’t even describe my feelings being able to train and participate this year.
