Tuna 200

TUNA200 mapThe Tuna Run 200 begins just outside of Raleigh, NC and finishes 203.61 miles later at Atlantic Beach.

I intend to run all 203.61 miles as a one person team on October 19th, 2016 to raise awareness and funds for the Wounded Warrior Project.

In 2015 I crewed the last hundred miles of the course for my friend Ashby Ray  who set the course record of 64:50:39.

Hurricane Matthew has affected a few legs of this route, but the race is still on!

Based on the impact legs 7 – 11 have been washed out and a new route will be published, but not here :).  We may not have the updates until I have already started on Wednesday evening since they will not impact the teams until Friday.

Ashby had his crew watch Finding Traction and we all found it to be a great way to see what you may be getting yourself into. 🙂
