There is a nice tee-shirt given to all pre-race day entrants.
You can also purchase Trail Nerd regalia, at the event. Family participation is encouraged, and yes, that includes dogs, too. Please
register your dog (for $10). This pays for the chip & bib. Rules for Dogs as Pacers: We are a dog-friendly bunch,
within reason. You can run with your (well-mannered) dog, but it must be on a leash, and you must not let it get entangled
with another runner. Your dog will be issued a bib number that needs to be attached (with your name and cell # written
on it with a sharpie). Your dog will be included in the official results, if you sign it in at the starting line.
There is no additional cost to you. Please keep in mind that we won't allow any cruelty to animals, so you must
attest to your dog's "trail conditioning." If it appears that your dog is heat-stressed or otherwise physically
stressed or injured, we will ask you to pull out of the race and seek out veterinary help. Please provide water and food for
your dog. You can refill your dog's water at the aid stations.

How was this race named?
After several cougar sightings, we had an impromptu contest to name the
Wyco Cougar. Bad Ben's son, Matt quickly came up with the winning name. He can also do a great Dustin
Hoffman impression, by the way.

Race Directors' Report
Billed originally as a 7-miler, we cut it short (to
a 10K, out of deference to lung capacity vs. elevation gain, and the potential overfeeding of a big cat with the unhealthy
free-radical-ridden flesh of mud-spattered trailrunners). 45 hearty souls showed up to run (a few with their
dogs)...43 finished; I can only assume two were consumed by the hills, and eventually by the cougar.
Ben Coffman (of Whiteman AFB) ran a fast debut
trail race, and won it in 41:40, followed by Rick Mayo and Chad Wooderson. Way to go, guys. Leeanne Reed won the designation "First Cougar," for not only clinching the overall female
title, but doing it as a Masters runner. Congrats, and welcome back to the trails, Leeanne! Hannah "From
Montana" Schultz took 2nd-place Female honors, followed closely by Kristi Mayo. Kudos to
all those that helped mark the course, setup, take down, help with registration & results, and generally, make
this race happen. And Larry, thanks for burying some whiners. Happy trails,
Bad Ben
