NCTS Race #04 – Booneville Backroads Ultra

The Booneville Backroads Ultra was this past weekend outside Des Moines and it sounds like it threw a little bit of everything at runners! Clouds, sun, rain, wind, hills and mud were just a few of the fun elements that 10k, 50k, 100k and 100 milers had to overcome in their quest to become a ‪#‎boonevillebadass‬!

With the series’ 4th race and 2nd possible Ultra race, a lot of points were to be had and there was a fair amount of shake up in the divisions. Standings have been updated and can be viewed along with everything No Coast at www.nocoasttrailseries.com! A snapshot of top 5 in each division is posted below but remember, participants must complete a minimum of three (3) NCTS races to be eligible for division awards (top 3 after overall male and female are taken out).

And in less than 3 weeks time, a group of unfortunate souls take on No Coast’s only timed endurance event of the series this year at Schuetzen NEIN! Hour Endurance Run! ‪#‎NEINyourself‬

NCTS Race #03 – Sunderbruch B&B Trail Races

The Sunderbruch B&B Trail Races took place in Davenport this last weekend and marked the third race in the series for 2016! Dry trails and absolutely perfect weather did their part to make the small grassroots QC TUR(d) hosted event a success for a third year in a row! ~150 runners total ran in either the 10k-ish or the 5k-ish course and afterwards, got to enjoy a wealth of bacon, craft beer and good times.

Next up this weekend, the Booneville Backroads Ultra! With great distance, comes great point potential! With distances ranging from 10k to 100 miles, expect a lot of points and a lot of movement in the Ultra divisions!
