Okay, folks, here’s the deal. We’ve got this epic event called the Swamp Thang Relay going down at Durbin Creek Preserve on May 4, 2024. It’s a CSAUP, which means Completely Stupid And Utterly Pointless, but hey, that’s what makes it awesome, right? Inspired by the disappearance of those two runners back in the ’90s (seriously, Google it), this 3 man/36 total mile relay is your chance to stick it to the Swamp Thang and make history.
But I get it – not everyone enjoys reading a madeup backstory, so here’s the short version: sign up, show up, conquer the swamp. Easy, right? Just freaking do it. Or don’t, it’s no sweat off my stones.
