In two weeks I will take Fixing Your Feet to Colorado for the 2010 Gore-Tex TransRockies Run.
The TransRockies is a six-day stage race where teams of two tackle different sections of trail each day. August 22 to 27 is the official race. Before the race is registration and the typical “get to know you” meetings. The current start list shows 118 teams. Runners will start in Buena Vista and end in Beaver Creek, about 115 miles.
In addition, the TransRockies Run3 will take place the first three days of the longer race. This shorter race is limited to 50 solo runners.
I will be assisting on the medical team – working on feet. If you will be there, make sure you come up and introduce yourself.
With over 250 runners for six days, I hope they come with some of their own foot care materials. I will pack my usual supply of tapes but it is hard to anticipate the quantity I need for that many runners over six days.
