Dirty Red Runs Tecumseh



Congratulations to the DiRTY ReD racing team! We had a blast down at Tecumseh. The weather was brutal! With temps in the 20's and a wind chill of 10 degrees, it was not the easiest to deal with. The trails were snow covered and icy, with switchbacks and plenty of downhills to slip on, but Team DiRTY ReD managed to finish strong. Chris Beyers was the the top female runner for Dirty Red and Darci acquired herself a new nickname. I believe it was " Slip". I think she loved Tecumseh and is looking forward to next years race! Great job Darci! Maybe someday you will forgive me? lol.

Along the trail ( at mile 5) , we met Brett Hess, a freelance writer for Marathon & Beyond and also a writer for RunIndiana.com. He wrote a story about us on his website. Check it out! Thanks Brett for your company on the trails! It was a pleasure talking to you and we look forward to seeing you at the Huff Ultra Marathon!

Misty, Betty and Jen finished side by side just like always! The DiRTY ReD trio was the name we were given. Frank ran a great race out there with a 4:15. Jill, Darci and Cass came in together as well. Way to stick together out there! Brian and Jim you two rock as usual! A huge thank you goes out to Mark and Katie for giving us a ride back to the hotel. Can you believe that we fit 12 adults in a Jeep Cherokee? Desperation is an amazing thing!

I'm looking forward to many more miles together. I am proud to be a part of Team DiRTY ReD.

Misty
