Bar-H Breaks Boondoggle results
The inaugural Bar-H Breaks Boondoggle was also the first
ultramarathon held at The Breaks at Bar-H. This is privately
owned land that is fantastic for mountain biking and trail
running. St. Jo is about eighty miles northwest of Dallas.
The course consisted of a seven-mile loop, which was used for
the first six hours, followed by a three-mile loop which took
the runners to the finish. Loop 1 included the tough "Devil's
Backbone" trail, with ups and downs that were more difficult
each time around, and compounded by a thunderstorm that passed
through the area.
The many ties are indicative of the scoring system used for Loop
2, which gave runners partial credit based on completed trail
segments during the loop.
The Boondoggle was sponsored by North Texas Trail Runners. Like all Texas
ultras, it is part of the Texas Ultra Roundup racing series.
