Alternate Chili Run Race Report
On Sunday, Dec 9th, we had quite a few runners show up to run on the trails out at WyCo Park for our 4th annual "Alternate Chili Run." It's not a race but a run with 3 pace groups. It's held at the same time as the annual Chili 6.5-mile Run that another club puts on every year on the paved roads around the lake at WyCo. We choose to run on the trails and put in 10.35 miles, instead.
Everybody got a taste of what the 'Psycho WyCo Run Toto Run' course will be like...quite a few hills and some nice scenery. Our run had 41 starters, (which was about as many as the regular paved run). That's pretty cool, because we only had 8 starters one year ago! The trails were icy that day, so we ran with "screwed" shoes. Everybody had a good time, and most of the finishers stuck around for homemade chili, after the run. Dick Ross took some fun photos of the run.

Good Ben, leading his group.
Keep in mind that we train on this course on most Sundays during the Winter. We usually run two (and sometimes three loops), and alternate directions on each loop. On some days, some of us run one loop, depending upon how we're feeling. We tend to have a lot of fun at this park.
Come out and join us sometime. Just check out our schedule.
Happy trails & happy holidays,
Bad Ben

Hey Bad Ben! Yesterday Les Martisko was speaking of your Phsyco Wyco race in February. He did it last year and is coming back again. The date worked well for us, we'll bring down a truckload of Minnesota ultra runners. Looking forward to meeting you in person!
