| Time: | The 10th Annual Muddy Moose Race will be Sunday, April 26, 2009 at 10:00 a.m in Wolfeboro, NH. The 10th Annual Muddy Moose Trail Races are well-organized, but low frill. The races start and end at Kingswood Regional High School in Wolfeboro, NH.
We are very proud to be sponsored again by XTERRA this year and to be part of the XTERRA New England Trail Series.
Both the 4 mile and the 14 mile races start together, then two paths diverge in the woods, and which one you take makes all the difference. These are trail races, not road races. Dirt roads, logging roads, single track, and snowmobile trails. The 14 mile race involves short steep hills, logs, roots, water, and mud. The 4 mile race is on flatter (but uneven) and somewhat drier (but often still muddy) terrain. Water stops at 2, 5, 9, and 12 miles. Proceeds benefit the Kingswood Regional track and crosscountry teams. Awards (one deep in both races) in the usual age groups. Lots of baked goods following the race. Hoses and showers available after too.
