My family camping in the local mountains. I'm the girl on the far left in the green jacket. |
If these events seem a little too much for your taste buds, there are some other fun summer advetnures you can sink your teeth into.
- Tough Mudder - these races are 10-12 miles in length and specialize in obstacles made from the British Special Forces. The races are held not just in the US but all over the world. There is a race in So. Cal in July.
- Rim Nordic Mountain Bike Race Series - is underway and offers cross country, downhill, and Super D races all summer long. The course is beautiful and terrain challenging.
- Trail running has a long list of races this summer from 5Ks to ultra runs. Here's an extensive list of trail runs this summer.
Between now and September, I will be in the mountains in Southern California training 20 hikers to do Mt. Whitney in one-day. I will sprinkle a mountain bike ride on the weekdays or sneak in a weekend ride after a training hike. A new way to enjoy summer in a non-extreme way is riding to the beach with a packed lunch and a cold beverage - I'm outside and enjoying some tranquility.
Get the cooler ready and have some summer fun!
