Rock/Creek Race Team
We're proud to introduce you to the Rock/Creek Race Team, a gifted group of endurance athletes who have been proudly waving the Rock/Creek banner at adventure races, trail marathons, ultramarathons, and other events over the years. We have sales reps, small business owners, several educators, two husband-and-wife teams, and they are all passionate runners who have traveled the country and across the globe to attend unique events. These guys and gals are well acquainted with suffering, testing their mental limits, and pushing their bodies and gear to the limit of what's possible.
Our race team members' experience and feedback help us tailor our product offerings to core enthusiasts like yourself. If you see any of these folks at a race, introduce yourself! You never know, you might be the next member of the team.

For 2009, we've added several new members. First we have John Wiygul, who becomes our youngest male team member at 19 years old. John won the recent Upchuck 50k. He has been running our races for a few years now and has plenty of experience with the other team members, so we look forward to more impressive results from him. Wiygul raced John Brower to the finish in the Upchuck. Now Brower joins the team as well. Two other members have been friends of Rock/Creek for some time: Adam Hill worked for us in the past, and joins us from Asheville, NC. Also Jeff Edmonds from Nashville joined the team recently. Welcome to the team guys!
