2017 Standings Update – 4 of 6 Races Complete!

Four of the six Trail Mix Series races are complete for 2017. Two more remain – Run The Farm (10/22) and Raven Rocks Run (11/12).

The updated 2017 Trail Mix Standings are online now (Women’s | Men’s) Each column is sortable and the categories and runner names are searchable.

Remaining races in the 2017 Trail Mix Series are:

These races are open for registration – sign up now using the links above.

178 runners — 50 women and 128 men have participated in at least two of the first four Trail Mix Series events so far in 2017!

With 4 of the 6 races complete, we have a much better picture of the series standings.

Kirby Mosenthal is leading the Women’s 2017 Trail Mix, just a hair ahead of Kelsey Crawford and Andrea MyersChelsea Ellis and last year’s Trail Mix winner Lindsay Obrig are close behind. Teren Block is sixth overall and the only woman to have completed all four 2017 Trail Mix races. There are 50 women with 2 or more races complete in the Trail Mix 2017.

Luis Francisco is leading the Men’s 2017 Trail Mix by just over a tenth of a point. Benjamin Hopkins is right on his tail with last year’s Trail Mix winner Virgil Bretz just behind him. Alexsei Chernov is in fourth and has completed all four Trail Mix races in 2017. David Hambleton is fifth and coming on strong. Newcomer Aaron Baldwin is in the mix at 6th place. There are 128 men with 2 or more races complete in the Trail Mix 2017.

DSC_0469-1This is our 4th Trail Mix series and we’re hoping to bring it to as many runners as possible!

If you ran in at least two of the Trail Mix races: Leatherman’s Loop, A Mild SprainWhere the Pavement Ends, or Sarah Bishop then you are listed in the Trail Mix 2017 standings. If you did not run at least 2 of these 4 races unfortunately you can’t complete the Trail Mix Series for 2017 — but you can still register for the remaining races!

Runners who complete the series in 2017 will get an automatic selection in the Leatherman’s Loop Lottery in January 2018 for the April 2018 Loop. If you are not in the mix for 2017, sign up to get our Trail Mix email updates to remind you of the series races in 2018!

If you see a problem in the results or standings, please let us know ASAP. The most common problems are name differences between races (e.g. Liz and Elizabeth, Jim and James, etc.) Considering nearly 1,700 different runners are being tracked at this point it is not possible for us to automatically match names in the standings database with these minor differences (we need to fix them by hand). It will help immensely if you pick a “race name” and stick to it for the series races when you register. Your race series volunteers appreciate the help! 😉 If you have already registered using a different name, we can change it if you let us know.

Come on out – We’d love to see you on the trails and in the Mix!

2017 Standings Update – 3 of 6 Races Complete!

Three of the six Trail Mix Series races are complete for 2017. Three more remain – including the Sarah Bishop Bushwhack this Sunday 9/24.

The updated 2017 Trail Mix Standings are online now (Women’s | Men’s) Each column is sortable and the categories and runner names are searchable.

Remaining races in the 2017 Trail Mix Series are:

These races are ALL open for registration – sign up now using the links above.
Nearly 1,700 runners — 605 different women and 1,087 different men have participated in at least one of the first three Trail Mix Series events so far in 2017!

DSC_0469-1This is our 4th Trail Mix series and we’re hoping to bring it to as many runners as possible!

If you ran in either the Leatherman’s Loop, A Mild Sprain, or Where the Pavement Ends then you are listed in the Trail Mix 2017 standings. If you did not run one of these 3 races unfortunately you can’t complete the Trail Mix Series for 2017 — but you can still register for the remaining races!

The benefits are multiple — even if you aren’t in the running to take your age category or the series: You get to hang out and race with some super (and modest) people. You get to visit and explore beautiful locations around Westchester and Fairfield Counties. And through trail racing you can connect back to nature in a way that road racing can’t match.

And if those reasons weren’t enough, there’s one more bonus: If you complete the series in 2017, you will get an automatic selection in the Leatherman’s Loop Lottery in January 2018 for the April 2018 Loop.

If you see a problem in the results or standings, please let us know ASAP.

The Sarah Bishop Bushwhack is in September.

The fourth race of the 2017 Trail Mix Trail Series is getting ready to go on September 24th, 2017.

The Sarah Bishop Bushwhack is a 10k race held at Mountain Lakes Park in North Salem, NY. This year marks the 5th year of the race. Race directors Lee Willett, Barry Fagan, and Mark Vincent are gearing up for the big day.

The Sarah Bishop Bushwhack is a unique and challenging trail race. Easily drivable from New York City, the course traverses through the park’s 1000 acres of scenic woodlands, beautiful vistas, and around the lakes that give the park its name.

Its 6+ miles of hilly terrain will challenge new and veteran trail runners alike. For those looking for a more modest challenge, Sarah’s Scramble, a 1.5 mile run/walk is available as well.

Come to Mountain Lakes Park and Run — We’re looking forward to seeing you there!
