Mountain Junkies L.L.C.

See who is registered for the 2021 Frozen Toe 10k

Come join us for year #13!  We are going with live events and virtual options and you will see that we have added one event to the mix this year.

We have posted some older 2001-2010 Star City Striders results to our site.  Look at the results drop down menus to see what results have been added.

We are working out the details to see if this event will happen in 2020.  Hopefully we’ll have an answer for you by mid-September.

Here is the tentative 2021 Roanoke Non Ultra Trail Series Schedule;

01/09/21 – 12^th Frozen Toe 10k

02/27/21 – 17^th Annual Explore Your Limits 5k and 10k

03/13/21 – 13^th Montvale 5 & 10 Miler – at Montvale Park.

04/03/21 – 13^th Mill Mountain Mayhem 10k

05/01/21 – 14^th Trail Nut 10k and Half Marathon at Bedford’s Falling Creek Park

05/30/21 – 11^th Conquer the Cove 25k and Marathon

We feel confident that the series will be an in person event series.  As restrictions change we’ll try to keep you up to date on the plan.  There is a lot of time between now and January and although events will probably look different, we should still be able to give you the events you’ve grown to love.

We are constantly looking at how to put on the best “live” event for you.  Locally there hasn’t been many events and we want to help deliver a well directed event while considering all the recent changes to group activities and sporting events.

You can find our race approach on the main webpage.  The details are gradually getting ironed out and we are updating the page as we change things.

We look forward to seeing you in a few weeks!

We are sad that the official CtC races have to be canceled but have set the event up to be run virtually.  See the webpage for all the virtual information – https://mountainjunkies.net/conquer-the-cove-25k-marathon/

I have compiled the results that have been submitted so far.  I’ll update them as people submit their results and once everyone gets a chance to run the course when the greenway reopens (tentatively 4/30/20).  There have been some Strava issues, course side trips, and other technological problems, so not all results have made it to Strava.

Thanks for playing in this ever adapting game (as of 4/15/20 – 6am)  https://www.mountainjunkies.net/Mill_Mountain_files/2020_Mill_Mountain_Overall.htm

The RNUTS point standings have been updated to show the current entrants and the results following the Montvale 5/10 Milers.  Let me know if you see anything that needs attention.  There is a lot of math in there and I may have missed a thing or two.

All of our Mountain Junkies LLC events are still being held. We are trying to stay current in this ever changing environment related to the virus.

Here are details about minimizing risks on the CDC website – please keep yourself current on what is recommended and abide by the recommendations.

Currently, the Virginia as well as our local Department of Health have not recommended canceling events. The vast majority of our runners are not in a high risk group and, other than the start and following the race, will not be in close contact of each other.

We ask, those who may be traveling from a high risk area, to not attend the event as well as those with any general symptoms such as a cough and/or fever (including spectators). For those attending, please bring your own hand sanitizer, wipes, and/or utilize other infection-control measures as best you can.

We will continue to make decisions that rely heavily on the guidance we are receiving from the CDC, the Virginia and local Departments of Health, and similar sporting governance and are intended to keep public health at the forefront of our concerns. Please remember that this is an emerging and rapidly evolving situation and that it may create uncertainty. Hence, our guidance and position is subject to change and if our position does change, we will reach out to our race registrants by email.
