15 | What's It Like To Direct Your First Trail Race?
Today our Trailgate Chat is titled “WHAT IT’S LIKE TO DIRECT YOUR FIRST TRAIL RACE”.
Nancy “Ultra Mama” and Coach Sarah will look back on 2022 Ahmanson Trails 6k & 12k Trail Runs held on April 16. Hear what it’s like for race directors to spend months dotting every “i” and crossing every “t”, and on race day turn it over to a team of crew and volunteers. Listen Sarah talk about the challenges and rewards of directing her first trail race and what she learned along the way.
