Bites of the Bluff 2014
Dates for the annual Bites of the Bluff, three low key training excursions on the Bluff 50k course, have been set. Complete all three and you will experience the entire route.
Bite 1, The Prologue – August 31, 2014. Meet at Guilford Lakes School Maupus Rd, Guilford at 8 am. The route is an out and back of approximately 8 miles. It’s dog friendly, but known to bite ankles.
Bite 2, The Middle Bit – September 14, 2014. Meet across from the Guilford Monastery, Race Hill Rd, Guilford at 8 am. This is also out and back and about 12 miles. This route isn’t dog friendly, please don’t bring fido. The going can be wet but it is very runnable (most of the way).
Bite 3 – The Tour de Bluff – September 28, 2014. Meet at the Rockland Preserve trail head in Renee’s Way, Madison at 8 am. A magnificent loop course up and over Bluff Head and a couple of other gnarly bits. Allegedly estimated to be 15 miles but dog friendly.
The pace on each run will vary and there should be enough people to form pace groups to accommodate everyone. We haven’t lost anyone yet, but we have been close once or twice! These runs are a great way to sample the route if you aren’t familiar with it and meet up with local runners. Participation is free and open to anyone interested in taking part.

“Saturday, April 4th the 8th Annual Bimbler’s Bash 10k(ish) Race took over the trails of Westwoods in Guilford, Connecticut. A bright blue sky gave promise that the chilly temperatures would warm up as the race heated up. Over 200 brave souls toed the starting line for what was promised to be a great 10k + run. Yes, the race is billed as a 10k but my GPS watch defiantly creeped past 10k, just like the folks at The Bimbler’s Sound promised………..” [Read more…]
