Register for the MAZE at Walnut Creek. 1st in the 2010 Rogue Trail Series. On Sunday March 28th. 

It ain't flat, dry, or strait, but it is FUN. The biggest danger is the other runners: beware the veteran trail runners. They will run full tilt thru the streams, splash thru the mud, and score any & all face plants. Walnut Creek offers you the opportunity to beat 'The Maze' The course winds through a challenging mess of trees, crosses a few creeks, climbs a few hills, but mostly follows a well worn and very confusing labyrinth of trails.
