Ice Man Dip and Dash
New Year's Day, Tuesday, January 1st
10:00am
2012 results: 65 degrees and 60 degree water: Richard Kennedy came in first followed by RJ Piret and Tommy Boudreaux, then 18 others followed. Although this is not a race we now keep track of times for those that want to compete against their time the year before. Thank you Runner's Choice for the after-challenge lunch use of the time clock!



History of event: In 1988 a small group of athletes embarked on a New Years Day run only to be thwarted by the Madisonville bridge mechanical malfunction. Frustration and a cold northern wind forced a call to action. The group swam the Tchefuncte River, fighting hypothermia and refusing to be impreded by any obstacle, even 49 degrees water. Hence, the Ice Man Dip & Dash was born. $30 registration.
