Thanks to all of you who raced Lagoon Valley in 2022. Air quality and weather was good. Kudos to the City of Vacaville for prepping the course to make sure the footing was good and the hazards were well marked over this course with 2 big hills. Please notify me, Craighton, at info@goldenvalleyharriers.org if you have any questions or concerns.
