RAW AT SKY ISLAND TRAIL RACE!

Congrats to the RAW members who drove out towards Marfa this past weekend to dabble in some trail racing for the Sky Island 25K. RAW showed out with two top 5 finishes, including an OVERALL CHAMPION! Cate Barrett, coming off a Open Mixed Relay win at Zilker the previous week, doubled up on victories by winning the women's overall title by nearly 5 minutes! Pat Hitchins was the top male finishing 5th overall and only about 3.5 minutes from 2nd place. Crystal Pharr and Eric Boggs also had strong showings finishing 20th and 31st in the women's and men's races, respectively.
