AD30 V
Aroostook Dirty 30
Oh cool, you're a marathoner or badass ultra runner!
Sweeeeet, you've done a million obstacle course races, because you think you're one Tough Mudda Humpa, bub.
You've read the news stories, or maybe you saw a youtube video, or heard whispered in hushed tones within your running community about this crazy race up in northern Hicksville that you don't even have to pay for!
And now you're here, the "official" website of the world's worst 30 mile run.
You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll quit. Our DNF rate is 50 percent for 4 years running.
This race is so bad, that it's damn near a miracle if you even make it to the start. Our DNS (did not start) rate is like, 90%, dude.
Now that we've really sold you…..

What IS this "Dirty 30", anyways?
Beau "The Main Street Nightmare" Taylor's sweet new AD30 ink.
This blog doesn't get updated often.
Before we almost killed Kyle... before a trio of participants carried half-decomposed moose carcass out of the darkness alongside the Aroostook River... and before we had dudes running down Main Street in Presque Isle, barefoot and bare-chested carrying a snowman, we needed to drum up propaganda to get people to the starting line. It is now safe to say the race is it's own propaganda.
Now, the ever-expanding facebook community away from Aroostook County keeps throwing the question out:
"What IS this 'Dirty 30', anyways?"
My first reaction is always to laugh. How do you put into words what happens on that weekend in September every year?
You're going to run 30 miles. You're going to lift, drag, cry, laugh, swear, and probably quit. We have a 47% finisher rate, all time. Other than those things, I cannot tell you what's going to happen. The personnel may change a little from year to year, but the spontaneous nature of the course and the race volunteers, called TMBs(Torture Maid/Men on Bicycles), guarantees a completely different event every year, and an experience that will be unforgettable. We offset the cost of driving to Aroostook County by making this event free. To sign up, simply send a funny letter of intent to kalepoland@yahoo.com
Stay tuned for 2013 rules...located on the sidebar of this blog!
