THE PHOTO PAGE


Here are two pictures taken  by David Begley early in January at the top of Mount Mitchell that will give you a taste of the steps to the turn-around of the Challenge.  While there have been several measurable snows on the mountain, this winter has been more characterized by winds and cold temperatures... December didn't see 32°!  

David also took the following pictures before and at the race's start and on  the Challenge's route.  There are several places shots along the Marathon route taken by Hal Clarkson as he ran!  

Thank you all for the positive feed-back on the changes to the 2000 course and for your cooperation in keeping the course clean and safe!

Check back on this site from time to time during the next six months to see updated information for the 2001 runs.
