Trail Mix Standings Update – Summer 2024
Three races complete - Four to go! Series is starting back up in September
Trail Runners:
Three races in the 2024 Trail Mix Series are compete! There are FOUR remaining Trail Mix Series Races (see links below).
We have sorted the races to date by total points scored to date (not an average per race). This highlights the runners who have completed more Trail Mix Series races over the runners who placed higher but have not (yet!) run as many races in the series. Runners with fewer races right now might potentially catch some of the front runners if they do more races in the series. But today’s standings reflect the cumulative points effort to date.
The good news is if you have run at least one race in the series, you are scored and can find where you stand. AND if you have not run any Trail Mix Series races yet in 2024 you can still complete the series with the four remaining races!
Women’s Series
In the women’s trail mix series, Lindsay Felling is leading – winning two of the three Trail Mix races she entered so far in 2024 and placing high in the third. She is followed by Barbara Basbanes Richter who has completed all three of the 2024 Trail Mix races.
Cassandra Ring is third overall with two trail mix races completed. Teren Block is fourth and Harriet Menocal is fifth.
Mary Brower and Allison Bell are sixth and seventh. Rounding out the top 10 with strong showings in two of the three races are Emily Rebori, Colleen Stapleton, and Julie Shulman.
Men’s Series
Eamonn Sullivan has placed first in each of the three Trail Mix Races this year and is ranked first overall in the series.
Second place is held by Todd Henrich and third overall is held by Gerry Sullivan.
Josh Omin and Arnaldo Guerrero are ranked fourth and fifth in the series to date.
Tommy Ross and Chris Irwin placed very high in the two Trail Mix races they ran this year to date, placing them in sixth and seventh place, respectively. Drew Accomando, Eric Foxhall, and Paul Viscontini round out the men’s top 10.
These standings are based on the total points earned to date so they highlight and favor runners who have completed more Trail Mix Series Races.
We are looking forward to see what Where the Pavement Ends brings on September 8th as the Series resumes in the fall.
The standings list is sure to shrink as we pass the fifth race which causes only series-scoring eligible runners will be shown. Don’t let yourself fall off the standings!
You don’t need to run in the series to race in these trail races – they are open to any who want to run! When you are ready for the challenge, we are here for you!
The remaining races in the series are:
Where the Pavement Ends (Sept 8)
Paine to Pain (Sept 29)
Run The Farm (Oct 27)
Raven Rocks Run (Nov 10)
Sign up for one, two, three, or all four today! Hope to see you on the trails!

Runners who complete the series get scored and are eligible for age-category recognition and get automatic selection when they enter the Leatherman's Loop Lottery for the following year (2025).
Our best way to let others know about the fantastic races of the Trail Mix Series races is with word of mouth — We need YOUR HELP to spread the word!
If you know someone who might be interested in running in the Trail Mix Series, please forward this note to them.
When friends tell their friends about the series and the races in the series from personal experience we see that as the highest complement. Thank you!
