21st year of the North Country Trail Run. #halfmarathon, #marathon, 50k & 50 mile #ultramarathon in Michigan. Home of one of the largest finisher medals in 🇺🇸
We thought it would be easier to take home all of your #swag this year in a large bag so we upgraded all of the drawstring backpacks to laundry bags. That way whenever you pass by your muddy, stinky running gear you can think of us. #northcountrytrailrun
We are proud to announce that this coming Monday we will be taking nominations for the new "North Country Trail Run Ambassador Program". Details at facebook.com/northcountrytra…
We're about 24 hours from having all 15,000 #photos filtered into separate folders by your bib numbers ready to send you a link to those folders. We will upload some here online too, but look for that email in the next day as our team works hard to get them all done.
It's 3:18 am not a soul insight. The walk of The race director prior to the 20th anniversary of this race of friends and family. The runners of the North country trail run all snuggled in for their last few winks of sleep. It's going to be a great Saturday.
Our head #chef has arrived. Chef Gordie and our new additional chefs of Chef Kathie, Chef Robert, Chef Patrick and our entire #volunteer team will be serving up a huge 4 line #buffet#feast just for you.
We see it in their eyes each and every year. One detail we cover with our finish line team every race is present each medal around their neck. It shows the "weight" of their accomplishment and our volunteers experience the care required to be part of the North Country Trail Run.
It may not look like a lot, but it's so #important. In just over a few hours we will be putting the last few items in our #AidStation supply boxes. The needed necessities for a fully operational aid station over the course of the two days during the #NorthCountryTrailRun.
Today we honor those on #MemorialDay that have given us the opportunities and #freedoms that we have. The abilities we share #together, like being able to #run together each year. Take a moment #today and remember those we have lost and those who still remain continuing the fight
We're excited the North Country Trail Run Kid's event continues each year. It's a free 1 mile #run that allows those 12 and under to run a #trail loop and cross the official #NorthCountryTrailRun finish line where they will receive their own #medal, #free#shirt, #bib and #snack.
