It was interspecies love at first sight for the inflatable DartMOOSE and the bouncy T-REX. Vermont 50K runners almost screamed with Jurassic fear. OMG. Fortunately, smiling UVRC volunteers were there to calm the almost panicked elite athletes with electrolytes, watermelon, potato chips, M&Ms, and selfies with the Wild Things. What danger awaited them 3.9 miles down the Vermont country roads at Margaritaville?

Mike Silverman, UVRC member and Vermont 50 Race Director runs a great operation that supports Vermont Adaptive Sports. Thank you to UVRC volunteers and friends: Todd and Andy MacKenzie, Rachel Stanfield, Hillary Wheeler, Robin Insky, Janita and Bonni Jo Radio Operators and Leader Faith T-Rex Strafach and her partner. What a team.

Congratulations to the 2022 UVRC competitors. You rocked the race.
