Alright Pax, it’s time to start thinking about starting the year off right with a trail run. If you haven’t done a trail run, now is the time to start. It’s a lot of fun and very different than your typical street race. What’s great about the New Year’s Day Trail Gnome Run is that it has a 5K option for those testing the waters and a 17K (10.56 miles) option for those who are all-in! Several Pax have already signed up for this event and you will not want to miss out. It also starts at a reasonable time so you can shake the cobwebs off. Let’s be honest here, New Year’s Eve is the latest you’ve stayed up past 9:30 PM in a looonngg while. The Baxter Trail Club is compassionate about this, thus later start times. Here are the basic details:

Date: 01/01/2017
Where: Baxter Village Community Center Green (3187 Colonel Springs Way, Fort Mill)
Time: 10:15 (17K) and 11:15 (5K)

BBQ! Did I mentioned there will be BBQ too? Do you need any other reason?

Also, if you are interested in rucking the event, CSPAN and Cobra Kai will be leading the ruckers beginning at 8:00 AM at Allison Park (you still need to register for the event).
