Feb 11 - The Terra Run- billed as a 10K the race was shortened for safety reasons.  Not sure exact distance.  Due to a lot of rain during the week, there was very sticky and slippery mud that slowed me to walking in places.  Definitely the hardest race I've ever run.
Feb 12 - Time Trial #1 rained out.  :-(
