Backyard Burn Hemlock Mosaic, originally uploaded by Brian Knight Photography.

This past Sunday nearly one-hundred and fifty intrepid racers (and two intrepid photographers dressed head-to-toe in waterproof-breathable fabric) gathered at Hemlock Overlook Regional Park for the final Backyard Burn trail running race.

Photos from this race (and proof that you once again awoke early on weekend morning and braved the cold and the rain) are now online!

Check out the super, soggy action in the online gallery!

Congratulations to EX2 Adventures for 10 years and 100 races!!

Remember, photos make for great, long lasting gifts…
