Horton's Holiday - Ep 87

Eat Clean, Run Dirty Podcast

Jeremy Peterson wrote an article for Eat Clean Run Dirty Magazine about the Holiday Lake 50k titled Horton’s Holiday. The Holiday Lake 50k is a loop course circling Holiday Lake itself as well as using country roads and trails in that area. The weather can be from nice and pleasant to running in a foot of snow. Jeremy tells the story of how the legendary Race Director, David Horton, started the race and how it has grown over the past 25 years. 2020 was a very special year in that Horton handed over the duties of Race Director to Brenton and Jamie Swyers. The Lynchburg Race Director duo are both ultramarathon runners and former Liberty University students where David Horton serves as Professor. Horton’s Holiday is paired with the photography of the very talented Jay Proffitt who aside from taking fantastic photos of the race is also the Producer of this very podcast. I hope you enjoy this audible article episode featuring Jay Proffitt, Jeremy Peterson, and David Horton, himself. My name is Jess Vandenbush and you are listening to the Eat Clean Run Dirty Podcast.
