Old Pueblo Results and Photos

Below are some photos of Adrian's 50-mile Old Pueblo run. Runners gathered long before the sun rose at Kentucky Camp, a historic mining site near Sonoita, Ariz. The Old Pueblo 50 course takes runners along dirt roads and trails, including the Arizona Trail, a national scenic trail that starts at the Mexican border and ends at the north rim of the Grand Canyon.

Here's how it ended. Check out the photos below to see how the rest of the day went. Or Click here for results.

Adrian scored this number on the last quarter mile of the race.

It was very nice meeting and running with you yesterday. I hope to see you again, especially this fall when I'll be living in Sierra Vista. Great race; looks like you got a little blood at OP50; sure makes these races more memorable.
