2019 ~ Big A Trail Races
Last Saturday (May 4th, 2019, May the 4th be with you) turned out to be a nice day for running in the Mt Agamenticus area and participating in the 9th annual Big A 50K Trail Race. 102 runners enjoyed perfect running temperatures with the sun coming out by mid-day. The pot-luck aid station was filled with a huge variety of items. After a satisfying run, many runners hung-out and enjoyed the event cook-out and wonderful summit views at the finish line.
Final race results can be found at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dPDIeAA9svUG_SYTbu_sctlj90yNCCux/view
