We felt our 2nd Annual Gunstock Trails half marathon and 5k went really well and were so happy with the cool morning and know that most of you enjoyed that little bit of rain right after the gun went off! We were so impressed by all of you! It amazes me how fast some of you can run on that terrain. It amazes me what good attitudes you bring and share with other runners around you. It amazes me to learn of your "why's" for running and some of the amazing things you've overcome. It really is a privilege to put on this race for you!
We are so excited about next year that we are offering a HUGE discount on registration if you sign up by this Halloween. That's Monday! Next year's race will take place on October 13, 2012. You can sign up now on active.com. http://www.active.com/running/laie-hi/gunstock-trails-half-marathon-and-5k-2012?int=29-6

2nd Annual Gunstock Trails half marathon and 5k
It's official! The 2nd annual Gunstock Trails half marathon and 5k will be held at the Gunstock Ranch at 7 a.m. on Saturday, October 15, 2011! Registration is now open on active.com, check out the link at the right!!
We felt that last year we had an excellent event and are going to make it even better this year!
One addition to our schedule will be the option of picking up your race number the night before at the Running Room between the hours of 3 and 7 p.m. This will give you a chance to get some extra zzzz's on race morning as well as pick up a few last minute running supplies. We will still have number pick-up on race morning at the race as well!
We look forward to another great year! Post wishes or suggestions to comments or email us at gunstockhalfmarathon@gmail.com
