Swinging Bridge 50K Information

SWINGING BRIDGE/ WILLIS RIVER TRAIL RUNS - 50K+ (APPROX 32 MILES), & 35K OPTION
JANUARY 19, 2008 8 AM

Race Report & results

Despite weather predictions during the week leading up to the races, we had cloudy conditions with temperatures holding in the mid 30's all day. The weather forecast had varied from 17 degrees to snow or rain all week. So the runners were spared any extra problems as these predictions were wrong.

The course was a bit wet and muddy from a heavy rain on Thursday, but most of it was still "benefiting" from this year's drought.

Tyler Van Rensselaer set a new 50K record in 4:23 with Sean Andrish close behind in 4:27.

This course can be deceptively difficult, with a lot of twists and turns, dozens of fallen trees and a half dozen minor stream crossings. So a number of the 50K runners opted for 35K when they reached that spot back in the park.

Here are the results:
