Social-Distancer Trail Challenge 2020 -PART DEUX!

In this current atmosphere of distrust, meat shortages (not to disparage the, ahem, less-endowed), and directionless leadership abounds, let us, trail runners, stick with our roots, rocks, mud, hills, and the great social-distancing that we've been professional at since SDTC uno.

We love to explore and getting off course (not lost) is a feather in our visor!  The Social-Distance Trail Challenge PART DEUX is a summer celebration of YOU! We follow all distancing requirements, because all we ever want is to get further away!  Like uno, PART DEUX is actual distance, real dirt put under your feet, in the boundless out-of-doors.  PART DEUX, explore more, of you!

Here's the deets:

There are TEN separate trail "Event" courses. 4-courses in PA, 3 in DE, 3 in MD. All of them are an opportunity to get outside, possibly of your comfort zone, and explore.  Each course is within 60-min drive of Kennett Square, PA. Your fastest time on each course counts, so you can repeat as much as you want!

All the maps will be posted in the private Facebook Group and will be emailed to you once registered. You have until August 31, 2020 to run any or all of these courses. Post results/pictures to the event's private Facebook group page (you will gain access upon registration) in comments or email directly with visual proof of distance/time/location so that I can keep track of/post official results.  Official results will be updated each week on Monday's by 8PM. 

ANYONE registered after June 15th will not get the KOOZIE! 

1. Run any or all TEN of the courses as many times as you like before September 1, 2020, your fastest time will be your official time.

2. Run the course in any direction you choose, they are mostly loops or lollipops, all have the same start/finish location, but it is up to you stay on the specified course.  Part of the adventure! 

3. Run courses solo or in small groups but of course, keep your distance!

4. Your results from each run must be posted to the Facebook page (must be registered to gain access) or emailed/messaged directly for it to be considered in the Challenge scoring.  Scoreboard will be posted to the Facebook group and displayed here once results start coming in.

5. Anyone that completes seven of the ten courses will be mailed the official 2020 Social-Distancer Trail Challenge Koozie (Must be registered by June 15th).  There will be special prizes in multiple categories, also shipped, for overall M/F in the categories listed below (Must be registered by July 15th to be considered for awards).

Courses - You will be emailed all course maps upon registration.  Course distances will vary, the shortest is over 3-miles, longest is shorter than 13-miles.

If you put in more mileage because you got off course, good for you!
