Race Chronicles: John Bryan Trail Half

The John Bryan Trail race is part of the Wolf Pack Trail series, which includes trail race distances ranging from 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, 20K Relay, and 6 Hours of Power. This edition of the race took place at John Bryan State Park on Saturday May 24th and Sunday May 25th. I ran the Saturday Half Marathon.

All races started at 10am. Same day check in and bib pick up was at the park starting at 9:15am. The race director, Chris Stout, made some race announcements prior to the start of the race, and then the national anthem was played.

This is a beautiful trail throughout the park, and course includes steps, uphill running, downhill running, and a bridge crossing. Many portions of the trail are single track. The course was well marked, with the 5K / 6Hours of Power following blue flags, and the 10K / Half Marathon following orange flags. The Half Marathon course was 2 Loops.

All event finishers received a Wolf Pack medal which was included in the bag handed out at packet pickup.

Finishers also received a Wolf Pack Sticker.

I finished 20th out of 24, with a time of 2:46:11.
