Wakely Dam Ultra Trail Run Set for July 18th

The 32.6 mile Wakely Dam Ultra trail run (apparently now being called the Wakely Peace Ultra, with groovy new website to go along with the name) is set for July 18th.  The run starts in Piseco and follows the Northville Placid trail to Wakely Dam.

Due to impact concerns the number of participants is limited and registration for this year’s race are already closed.  However, there is a waitlist and my understanding is that this list shrinks over time.  If you are interested, and have not yet registered, it might be worth emailing the organizer to see if you have a chance.
