Here is the race flyer for the Bull Run Road Race which is being held on Sept. 23rd. Come out and race on a course that travels through an area commonly refered to as "little switzerland." This course should be a great tune up for the cross season. (actually I just made that up becouse it sounded cool) We are working on putting together I slightly toned down course for the juniors. We will post updates as they become available. Don't forget to check out the course map and topo at gscamerati.org Thanks chris myers G.S.
