Hello,
Today I raced in the 5 Peaks race at Rattlesnake Point, it was an awesome morning! The weather was perfect not to hot overcast with some sun and a few rain drops to cool you off. I have looked forward to this race since last year when I finished it for the first time. I love the trails and the scenery, it is definitely the most technical of the 5 Peaks races as there are a lot of rocks, roots, gaps, and cliffs to watch out for, but really that’s what makes it so much fun…its EXTREME cross country!
The 5 Peaks crew that puts on all the events are fantastic they are so friendly and the sponsors are so generous, today especially confirmed this for me. After arriving to the race site and getting ready to get out of the car and go for a warm up run I was horrified to discover that I had grabbed to left foot running shoes, now this could have been the end of the day for me but thanks to Salomon who lent me a pair of the new XT Wings I was not only able to run but also finish in style đŸ™‚ Oh and I loved the shoes so much that I ended up buying them!! They are so comfortable and have incredible stability. THANK YOU so much Salomon!!

My wife did the race too and was pleased as well. She finished with the same comment, saying that the race is very technical but definitely had fun too…
