2009 Landmine Survey
Thanks for racing the 2009 Landmine Classic. We hope that you had fun racing through the mud. We’re due for a dry year next year!
As our race grows we are always looking for input on how to make improvements and tweak it so that you will want to make it your favorite race that can’t be missed. We would sincerely appreciate your input. Please take a minute to respond to the following questions and return them via email. Thank you for your time and we look forward to seeing you again next year.
We had a lot of improvements this year:
- The field was bigger for better parking
- The berm made for a sweet finish
3 new trails were added
- The feed-zones were stocked with food
- The course hit more historical features (bunkers, blast walls, and excavations that became our ‘play grounds’)
However, the bridges were super slick this year. Please send us any solutions that you have seen implemented to solve this problem. We will also have recycling next year.

Was course congestion an issue? Were you able to pass when needed?
Do you like the course length?
Was there sufficient variety of trail?
