Current Goal

Trophy Travelbug by TrailRun

I love running trails, and mud's the best,
Please give me a hand in running west.

Basic mission: WEST Please move me west if possible, but if not I'd just like to keep moving. My owner will post his running mileage and see if he can outrun me. My preference is to hit some good trails on the way west, and then to make the jump to Lahaina, Maui.

About This Item

Closeup

Although I'm a long way from winning hardware, I love to run, and geocaching has provided me with a lot of new and interesting destinations.

Around the time I turned 40, my brother inspired me to run my first marathon and it has been very rewarding.

I began trail running during marathon training and my favorite events have been on trails, including Dances With Dirt (www.danceswithdirt.com), and the Tecumseh Trail Marathon (www.dinoseries.com).

The starting cache for this TB is near one of my favorite trails. The mud on the trophy was inspired by the "This Sucks" leg of Dances with Dirt. Here's my loooong race report from DWD 2005: (Visit link)

Up until March 12, 2007 I was holding my own against Trophy, but it made a big move and I have some catching up to do. The graph below shows the mileage over time. On November 17, 2007 Trophy reached its goal of reaching Lahaina, Maui and it is now stopped (I hope) with my brother. Maybe sometime I'll catch up. I plan to keep logging miles here as I make progress. (That will be slow in the near future until some knee problems are resolved.)

Picked this one up at the TOOOOO Sweet event today. Looks like TrailRun has some catching up to do. Better get in shape as this one might do some serious moving soon!

Nashville... Is that far?! I need to add up some more miles, but I was ahead by around 250 miles when this was picked up. See my Dances with Dirt race report for 50 of those miles: http://www.tapermadness.org/tm_phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=896

Found this one while out hitting a few caches in the Chicagoland area. Will be taking this one to drop at an event cache in Nashville tomorrow. TFTB!

Thanks Jakesdiner for toting this around for a while. We'll see how long this rest will be. I'm 59.52 ahead at this point. Still struggling to get my longer training runs in because of busyness at work, and vacation activities. I'm missing my run again today. :( Hopefully I'll be able to do Dances with Dirt this year, and I'm signed up for the Milwaukee Marathon in early October. Got to keep the mileage up for those... By the way, I saw CoyoteTrust at the Waterfall XTreme 10 on 8/13, and had a good run that day.
