Andy "Flying Kick" Wacker 7 min late the the start of the Barr Trail Mountain Race…No Problem!

"Yeah, I was late, you should try it some time!"


With all the attention about Barr Trail Mountain Race recently, I figure I'd like to write why everyone should run next year.


1) Post Race - Free pulled pork (or veggie) from Front Range Barbecue, Pineapp-Ale Wheat beer from Manitou Brewing Co. Not hungry? How about free massage to work out the kinks from the downhill. I was literally walked on by a masseuse!


2) Organization - Coming from someone who started 7 minutes late and still had flawless packet pickup, this is scary efficient. Plus a mustachioed race director in cheetah board shorts. (Go #TeamColorado)


3) Pike's Peak and Barr Trail - This is an amazing course, like nothing else it the world (and I've been around!).


4) Charity - The aid stations are operated by local high school cross country and track teams that compete for funding. Hard to choose between Minions, Jurassic Park and kids in tee-shirt tuxedos handing you Gatorade!


So next year, race it, and don't be late or Runner's World might embarrass you!
