Baltimore Area Ultra Runner List Baltimore Area Ultra Runner List The purpose of the Baltimore Area Ultra Runner (BAUR) List is to identify those individuals in the Baltimore Running Community that have completed running events greater than the traditional marathon distance (26.2 miles) and highlight their accomplishments. The BAUR List started in January 2010 and it is similar to a document compiled by the RASAC Running Club in Harford County, Maryland that focuses on members of their club. It is hoped that this list will identify those pioneers of distance running in the Baltimore Region and encourage others to participate in our sport. In 2014 the BAUR list expanded its geographic area to include runners in Central Maryland that asked to be included on this list. Criteria for inclusion into the Baltimore Area Ultra Runner List: 1. You must have finished at least 1 ultra race. This is any organized distance event greater than 26.2 miles in length. 2. Training runs do not count. 3. A- You must finish the race. You cannot dropout of a race and still have it count toward the list. B- However, if a race provides official credit for a partial distance covered in their official results as a separate event, this will be considered an official ultra finish. (i.e. Runners in the Umstead 100 Miler, completing at least 50 miles, are included in the Umstead 50 Mile Results) 4. Ranking is by total mileage completed. 5. Time and place in the running events are not considered. 6. Eligibility is not limited to Baltimore Road Runners Club members and BRRC membership is not required. 7. For purposes of this list, Baltimore refers to the Baltimore-Washington Region. This includes Baltimore City and the counties in Central Maryland. 8. Current residency is not required. (Someone who lived in the region at one time and has relocated to another part of the country is welcome to maintain their accomplishments on this list.) If you wish to be included in the Baltimore Area Ultra Runner List or have questions, contact Tom Nasuta @ [email protected] . Please provide the Name, Date and Distance of the events that you have completed.

However, at times the courses may be a little short or a little long. To be consistent, runners in this ultra list will receive credit for the distance published by the race director in the official results for the event. (i.e. if a race identifies itself as a 50 Miler, runners will be given credit for 50 miles. ) Ultrarunning Events in and near the Baltimore Metropolitan Area 1 – Phunt Run – 50K (January) 2 – Hinte-Anderson Trail Run – 50K (March) 3 – Gunpowder Keg Ultra – 50K (April) 4 – Hashawha Hills 50K Trail Run (February) 5 – Seneca Creek Greenway Trail 50K Run (March) 6 – Mid-Maryland Ultra - 50K (February) and Patapsco 50K (October) 7 – Stone Mill 50 Mile Run (November) 8 – North Face Endurance Challenge 50K and 50 Mile (June) 9 – Rosaryville 50K (July and November) 10 – Endless Summer 6 Hour Run (July) 11 – Frozen Heart 50K (February) Baltimore Area Ultra Runner List - Date of Last Update: 6/3/2019 (Page 3 & 4) Number of Ultra-Runners: 259 1.

  • Management Areas
    MANA(~EMENT Management areas are "areas of the Forest with similar managerlnent objec- AR:EAS tives where compatible misnagement prescriptions1 are applield." The Re- vised Plan is based on a sysrem where lands managed to achieve complemen- tary objectives under the same standards2 are allocated to the same manage- ment area. Twenty-two maflagement areas were developed to ac(;ommodate the variety of desired manag ement activities, products, services, and conditions identified by the public. Eac h of the 14 alternatives considered in 'Ijet ail in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FE IS) used a different combination of these management areas in achieving a distinct forest management theme. Appendix B of the FEIS comains a discussion of the 22 different management areas used in formulating th4~14 alternatives. The Revised Plan --a detailed and expanded version of the pr4~ferred alternative --utilizes 18 of the 22 manage- ment areas. Each of the 18 management areas is described in detail in the pages following, beginning with acres per management area in Table 3-1.

  • WALKS in the Pine Creek WATERSHED
    WALKS in the Pine Creek WATERSHED To promote the importance of the local watershed to area residents and to encourage everyone to enjoy its natural beauty and diversity, the Outreach Committee of the Pine Creek Watershed Assessment has developed five self-guided walking tours of the watershed. These hikes average an hour of walking. For safety, always hike with a partner and for the protection of plant and animal life, stay on the trails. Taking along a small plastic bag to carry away some litter from along the trail is a simple way to further enhance these natural resources. Take a camera and share with us your walk in the watershed! 1) IRMA KOST NATURAL AREA This beautiful area is at the eastern end of the Hampton Municipal Park. To get there go 1.4 miles north of the intersection of Route 8 and Duncan Avenue (Green Belt) past Harts Run Road on the right, to McCully Rd. (just before Craighead office complex). This is a dangerous right hand turn so go slowly off Route 8. Continue another 1.3 miles passing the Hampton High School, Hampton Park, the Red Barn Theatre, & Hampton Municipal Building, to the third downhill slope. A good-size gravel parking area on the left is at the entrance to the Irma Kost Area. An attractive sign marks the spot. This valley includes the headwaters of Gourdhead Run, a tributary to Pine Creek. A lovely grove of mature and growing beech trees are a highlight of the area, with large cherry, oaks, maple, ash and other hardwoods dominating the area.
