JORTS 5k

What? Fun run (3.2 miles) on dirt roads on the family farm. Really crappy prizes for top finishers. BBQ to follow. BYOB&M-Bring Your Own Beverage & Meat. I will provide as much Keystone Light as the wallet allows.
When? March 3, 2012. Please arrive around 2:30 p.m. Shotgun start at 3:00 p.m.
Who? All runners with an affinity for dirt and jean shorts. Jorts (jean shorts) are required race attire for this event. So start chopping your old jeans!
Where? "The Bottom: Riverside Farm" (just off Windsor Isl. Rd., North of Keizer).

More details:

Signage will direct you to race start/finish area once you are in the vicinity.

Basically, head north on Windsor Island Rd. from Keizer. Approximately 1 mile north of Lockhaven Dr. you will see orange gates on the right hand (west) side of the road. Enter these gates and proceed down the gravel driveway until you reach large sheds. Park in the gravel.

Please sign up by commenting below or emailing me. Please include your name and number of folks who will be attending with you. This is only to get a rough idea of how many I should expect.

Any questions? Please either comment below or email me at josh (dot) zielinski (at) gmail (dot) com.

    1. The race was a hoot as were all the keystones and sausages afterward. pics are still en route from various folks that promised to send them my way... i was busy cruising in my sawed-off overalls my wife picked out for me. i did read your post and was thrilled to make a celebrity appearance on your famed (and genius) sight. good stuff. patience, those pics will come.
