Froggy Mountain Warrior 100

Froggy Mountain Adventures is sponsoring a winter 100 miler group run on Feb 22, as a fundraiser for the veterans organization, 22toomany. I lost my son Dexter, a US Marine, to mental health and suicide Feb 25th 2018, and have been running 100 100s to raise awareness. In the past I've run solo 100s but this year I decided to see if anyone would like to join me for a self supported 100 in Galax Virginia. There aren't many 100 milers available to run in February, so I'm hoping there might be a few die-hards out there willing to brave the cold and possible ice/snow in support of military and veteran suicide awareness. This event won't be permitted, just a "group of friends" getting together to run. We will most likely have some kind of aid set up, but you'll need to plan to be self-sufficient. It will have a 40 hour soft cutoff. Meaning if you don't make 40 but want to continue, I'll still give you a buckle. Feb temps can be cold and snow or freezing rain is always a possibility. Location SR612 Trailhead, Foothills Rd, Galax VA. It's a low key quiet road/trail near Galax. There is a 7.2 mile out and back on a gravel road with a 3.1 mile climb and a descent with a gorgeous view at the top, then a 1.35 mile out and back on a moderately technical trail. You'll do a quick jog down the road near the finish to complete 10 miles, creating a 10 mile loop. Repeated 10x. None of the climbs are technically hard but there is approx 15,000 feet of vert for the entire 100 miles, and some areas on the gravel road can be slick with ice. Cost includes a lowkey buckle inscribed with my son Dexters Warrior artwork, depicting his victory over his demons. The remaining amount after tax-fees will be approx $22 that will be donated to #22toomany. Register before Feb 1 for a buckle at the run, otherwise it'll be mailed afterwards.
