Arrowhead 135 Mile Winter Ultra Marathon Begins
A bunch of hardcore, winter loving, snow bike riding freaks (and I mean that in the best way possible), as well as some runners and skiers lined up today for the start of the Arrowhead 135. Among the starters were XXC Issue #4 contributor Paul Errington. Paul came the whole way from the UK to throw down in the snow.
Arrowhead 135 Finishers Trophies. Who will get one in Twenty-Ten?Also lining up is endurance racer Chris Plesko. While Chris was never in XXC, XXC #5 cover star and contributor Eszter Horanyi borrowed some lights from him for her 24 Hour National Championship win, so I guess he's like 2 degrees of XXC.
I don't doubt you will see some features on snow biking and about the Arrowhead 135 in an upcoming issue of XXC. In the meantime check out the Arrowhead Blog for daily updates, as well as Paul and Chris's blogs in the future. Also check out big wheel buildin', big mile lovin' Mike Curiak's recap and photos of last years event. It truly is amazing. Great photos and a great story.
Hats off to the men and women racing this thing. Snow, ice, and temps that I would walk out in, let alone race in! Good luck and safe travels to all of them.
