I was reading the new Dirtrag with the Ned Overend article, and he was talking about a new type of race called muddy buddy. I guess it's 2 people on a team. They both take off at the same time, one on a bike and one on foot. After a mile, the bike rider drops his bike and takes off on foot. When the first runner gets to the bike, he rides it for a mile, and it repeats. Sort of a mountain leap frog.

Anyone heard of this, or have competed in this type of race? Sounds like fun to me, as I also love to run.

The article, by the way, was well done.... That guy really inspires me with his determination and dedication.
