Orcas Island: 50k full, 25k almost full but... you can still get in if...

The 50k is now full and there are only 30 spots left in the 25k!

If you really wanted to run the 50k but missed out you still have 2 options for getting in: either come and volunteer at the trail work party the weekend before the race(saturday jan 29) or bring a volunteer with you to volunteer on race day.

Email me if you're interested in either volunteer option, which not only gets you in the race but your entry fee is waived as well! james@rainshadowrunning.com
