Pt Mariah Trail Marathon Only one month left until Pt Mariah time! We hope you will join us at one of the best trail marathons in the country. You can run the whole course as a solo runner, join a partner, or come as a 5-Person Team. If you can’t race it this year consider joining us as a volunteer! We need help on the days leading up to the race, on race day, as well as the day after. Volunteers will receive a special swag item and are invited to our finish-line BBQ and fun! Three Cheers for the DPMR Mountain Running Fest! The best two weeks in trail and mountain running have now been firmly established in June in Truckee-Tahoe – and we had a blast! Coach’s Corner with Martin Benes – What is My Watch Telling Me?This month in Coach's Corner, local coach (and DPMR Board Member) Martin Benes discusses some of the most common data that people get from smartwatches. Book of the Month: Running Your First Ultra"The book embodies the fact than an ultra is much more than the specific training and the race execution. It’s a journey, a mind altering experience and reading about it through Krissy’s words before experiencing it myself (even though each person’s experience will be different) was empowering, uplifting and inspiring." Monthly Weekend Group Long Runs Coming in July Starting in July, Martin Benes will be leading once-a-month long runs on summer weekends, in the 10 to 15-mile range. Join him on July 13th for the first run - a classic loop around Castle and Basin Peaks on the DLRT, Warren Lake Trail, and PCT. Mark your calendars for future runs on Aug 10 and Sept 14 (details will be added to the DPMR calendar once available). Connect with us at our weekly Group RunsJoin us at our Tuesday evening Alibi fun runs, Tuesday morning speedwork, and Thursday evening speedwork!
