In 1996 a race called the Blue Moon 6 miler was put on by the Leatheman Harriers at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation. The race that year was met with a small but enthusiastic crowd including several founders and race directors. Mike and Kate Paletta may have met through mutual friends at this race and love was definitely in the air!
The course — as best can be remembered — is shown in this Sunday Run map here. The original course is lost to time and involved a bit more bushwhacking. The course, today’s version and the past, are beautiful courses.
