The Ultimook Race

Tillamook Cross Country Invitational -- September 7th

The Ultimook Cross Country Invite offers a REAL cross country experience
without sacrificing a quality, raceable course.  It features a mud pit, two river
crossings, a steep hill portion, and other unique obstacles.  It is not a fast course,
but promises to be a team favorite meet.  We've added a new element to this
 year's race which will add even more intrigue to the meet (you'll need to come
to find out what it is--all I can say is that it's never been done before).

It offers serveral race divisions, both high school and middle school.  But after
 last year's success, we expect the race to fill up soon.  In addition to our middle
 school races, we are limiting registration to the first 100 high school teams to
sign up.   See more info below.

We're also holding The Ultimook Running Camp August 11-17.  The camp's
 mission is to develop long distance runners in both mind and body.  This
 camp includes several trips to various beaches along the Oregon Coast,
the area's most challenging remote logging roads, and winding trails through
 the coastal rainforests.  More importantly, though, it includes lessons on
mental toughness, team goal setting, and leadership.  This unique training
environment will challenge and inspire young runners of all levels.  Individuals
 and teams welcome.  Please visit www.ultimookrunningcamp.com for more
 information or contact [email protected]. with questions.

country racing.  Middle School 3k and Open Race 5k.

*Spectacular setting on one of Oregon's largest flower farms with a natural park
setting.

*Marsh pit, river crossings, giant hill, wood chipped trails, and a new feature this

*Ice Cream Party (of course, it's Tillamook!)

*Corn Maze team competitions.  Challenge other teams to the Oregon Coast's
 largest and most challenging corn maze.

*Unique farm fresh flowers given as awards to top 10 finishers in each race.

*Friday night camping available to  high school teams only (pull my leg if you
have a junior high team that would like to camp).  Come early, stay late, and
enjoy the scenery of the Oregon Coast.  Breakfast will be served to all campers
