Mountain Junkies L.L.C. is a work in progress. My wife and I became mountain junkies in 2001. That year, our free time got taken up by miles upon miles of trail running and mountain biking.

We had the fortunate opportunity to meet up with Ronny Angell of Odyssey Adventure Racing. He lured us away from our life of lifting weights at the gym and the occasional hike, to our first run up to McAfee's Knob (parking lot to peak, in less than an hour). Four months later I was running the Holiday Lake 50k. And we haven't slowed down since.

In 2007 we began work on a new interest, promoting and organizing events. Our goal is simple. We want to bring what we love to do, to people like us, and to hold unique, fun, and challenging off road events in the Roanoke Valley and surrounding areas. With the help of a handful of friends and volunteers we have had a great start. In 2007 we put on 4 events in 4 months, 2008 was filled with 4 successful events, and, in 2009 we launched an entire trail running series. Trail running in this area is getting better.

In addition, as Gina and I have traveled around to different areas we noticed that the best recreational experience was achieved in areas that had easy to find trail information. It was from these trips that I decided to create a website with trail information of the Roanoke Valley and surrounding areas and a platform to promote our lifestyle and events.
