Baldy Marathons Madness
It all started months ago when a fast ultra runner friend of
mine heard I was planning to do Barkleys Fall Classic and/or UTMB/OCC this
year. Jake Dinardi said if you are really series
about training for those then I know a race director that has put together a
course with a fairly high ‘suffer index’. That conversation lead to friending
the RD on FB, some messages exchanged and ultimately Aaron Sorensen added me to the
‘closed’ FB groups after I registered on ultra signup even tho technically the
race was closed. Thanks Aaron … I thought at the time! Thus began my training for my first ‘off
trail, self supported mountain orienteering’ race.
