Wanna run 50K ?

On Nov 14, there will be a 50k point-to-point trail run on the Cumberland Trail, TN. The money raised will help the Cumberland Trail Conference and the Wilderness Trail Running Association. To quote from their site:

"The Boonies and Rock/Creek present the 2nd official UPCHUCK 50K. The event consists of a point-to-point trail that runs entirely on the technically challenging single track of the Cumberland Trail.

This course has huge climbs and huge descents into Soddy Creek, Possum Creek and Rock Creek. It will, without a doubt, go down in the race log as one of the best 50k courses you will ever do. Please do not attempt this run as your first 50K. This is a serious endeavor and will quite possibly be your slowest 50k to date.

Let us reiterate: this is seriously difficult."

If you think you're in good 'nuf shape to give it a go, here's a link for more info and registration. Volunteers or donations would also be seriously welcome.
