Idiots Running Club Skunk RunIR C

The biggest non-event in all of runn ing.

How it all started......

Once upon a time there were two Idiots who liked to run. Roads and trails. Summ er and winter. Rain, heat or snow. Through creeks and mud. Up big hills and down the other side. These two Idiots never knew how far they would run. I f one said "at least 10" then they would run 15. If one said, "I must be ho me by 8" then they would finish their run no earlier than 9:30. This carefr ee attitude about training was not accepted by the mainstream running commu nity, but it worked for the two Idiots.

One day the Idiots were finis hing up a 12-turned-into-15-turned-into-20 mile run when they happened upon a skunk. They both stopped, pausing their Garmins of course, and pondered what to do. The skunk was taking its time crossing the gravel road, and the two Idiots were less than a mile from the finish. As the skunk eased over to the ditch, one of the Idiots started slowly running. The other, being an Idiot as well, followed closely behind. As the first Idiot passed the skun k he had a sudden urge to LOUDLY YELL in an effort to scare it into sprayin g the second Idiot. It was a mo' awesome run.

So..... The idea of an IRC Skunk Run was born.... The rules are simple.< /p>

Run as much, or as little, as you want to in 8 hours. You can run 1 m ile, take a nap, eat some food and then go run another. Or don't. Your choi ce.
Keep track of your distance. Be honest. For *most* miles.... Garmi n data will be your proof.
Smile, laugh and act the fool in general. I f possible.... get another runner sprayed by a skunk. *Not required*
N o whining.
The "official" location of the Skunk Run will be in the Caney Mountain Wildlife Refuge in Ozark County, Missouri on Mar ch 14, 2015, starting at 7:14 a.m. and ending at 3:14 p.m.

All partic ipants will receive a super cool IRC Skunk Run "medal"and long-sleeve tech shirt. MUST REGISTER by Febuary 24, 2015 to be guaranteed a shirt.

If anybody actually gets sprayed by a skunk, we will end the run, a nd that person will be granted the title of Skunk Master.

Running is FREE and open to anybody. If you want a long sleeve tech shirt, ceramic par ticipation "medal" (crafted by children in our sweatshop purchased from the high school art club), food and directions to the restroom then the cost is $46.72 (The restroom is located at the campground. If you can't find it then you are lost.)

< p>This is NOT a race/official event. It is an IRC group run. If you fall do wn and get a boo-boo or get attacked by Bigfoot – it is not our problem. It is Skunk Run also a trail run. This means. no whining, complaining, crying about anything. This includes the food that may or may not suck, the condi tions of the trail that may or may not be muddy, the organization that will probably suck, or the fact that instead of port-a-potties along the trail there will be many, many trees to choose from.

There are many options /loops to run with something for all levels of runners. Food and refreshmen ts will be provided at the start/finish area of each loop. This will probab ly be the only "aid station" type area so prepare accordingly. Children are welcome, and we encourage you to bring them along. The Skunk Run is a very family-friendly non-event and kids love to explore while you run the trail s. (Yes... there are usually more than a few adults willing to supervise.) If you want a "medal" and long-sleeve T-shirt (not tech) for the kids, the cost is $25.  Or if kids want a medal only, it's $15.

There will also be a virtual/satellite Skunk Run option again this year. Run on your own roads/trails between 7:14 a.m. and 3:14 p.m. on March 14. Same rules ap ply. You will not be eligible for the super cool prizes (maybe we'll send y ou an IRC sticker or beer mug if you break a bone or need stitches) but you can still get an IRC Skunk Run participation "medal" and shirt for $36.72 or $25 for the youth T-shirt and medal.
