Sinister 7 is 85% Full
As
of today, the Sin 7 is 85% full. Every time I open
my email, there is a new team or solo. We expect to start a waiting
list within the next two weeks, so if you or a friend are thinking of
running, please do not wait much longer to sign up. We would hate to
disappoint anyone.
At this moment we only have 32 solos and we definitely would like to see more. Spread the word!

Sinister 7 Wins Readers' Choice Award
We are excited to announce that the Sinister 7 has won the Get Out There Magazine's Readers' Choice Award for "best running event in Western Canada".
Thank you so much to everyone who voted for us. We are simultaneously
ecstatic and humbled. Of course this means we will have to work a
little harder every year in order to keep on earning this honor.

FMAC Race Director on SWAT
Andrew
Fairhurst, co-owner and course designer for the Full Moon Adventure
Company was recently asked to join SWAT. No, this is not
some sort of paramilitary group, it is the South West Alberta Trail advisory committee.
The group is a government funded body with the mandate to upgrade
existing trails in the region and plan for the future. The committee is
comprised of representatives from tourism operators, ATV clubs,
equestrian clubs, the Crowsnest Conservation Society, and various other
groups representing non-motorized activities. The goal is to create an
inclusive trail network that is safe and enjoyable for all users.
So
far this in the past year the group has been able to extend the Allison
Lake cross country ski network in the Crowsnest Pass by 10% as well as
completing a 15km connector trail in the Hastings Ridge area.
For
years, we at FMAC have used public lands in Alberta for our events. We
are pleased to have the opportunity to give back to the community by
supporting and helping guide this initiative. We look forward to
sharing more information on SWAT's achievements as they develop over
the next several years.

We are looking forward to seeing you on July 9 to 11. In the meantime, enjoy your winter and get ready for a great race!
Best Regards,
Brian Gallant
Full Moon Adventure Company
