Bighorn Mountain Wild and Scenic Trail Run

With the Bighorn Mountain Wild and Scenic Trail Run kicking off today, we decided to go be a part of the action. We were lucky enough to share some words with two runners and their supporting casts minutes before the race started.

Peter and Julie Bray (two on the right) have traveled around the country to compete in ultra long distance runs. However, this is the first time the two of them have made it to the Bighorn Mountain Trail Run. We also learned that Hayley Pollack came all the way from Arizona to participate in the 100 mile run. What’s even more impressive is that her friend Diane made the trip from London, England so that she could be a ‘pacer’ for Hayley. This means that Diane will run alongside Hayley from mile 30 to mile 66 so that Hayley can maintain a good pace. Talk about being a good friend.

There will also be a 50 mile, 32 mile, and 18 mile race this weekend in the Big Horns. We wish all the runners good luck. Remember Sheridanites, if Diane can come all the way from London to run in our mountains, you can load the truck up and spend some time in our beautiful mountains as well!
