Black Dome Trail Running Team members Mark Ledyard and Jay Curwen duke it out in a soggy St. Patty’s Day 10k…
After local stud Brian St. Onge managed to take a wrong turn and follow the accompanying 5k, Curwen and Ledyard were left to decide first place between them. Mark took the lead near the crest of the Sunset Rd. climb before Curwen opened up a small lead that he would maintain until the finish downtown.

The race was held to raise money for Asheville Catholic School.
Team Black Dome / Sport Factory takes 2nd at brutal CP0.
The weather was the story of the weekend at the 2008 CheckpointZero 30-Hour Adventure Race. sub-freezing temps, high winds and snow made mincemeat out of a highly competitive field. Several of the top ranked teams never saw the finish as the conditions forced withdrawal after withdrawal.
“The paddle was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done.” said The Dome’s Dwight Shuler…”Definitely on my list of shit I don’t ever want to do again.” said Team Black Dome 2’s Jay Curwen.
Both Black Dome teams saw each other off and on all weekend with each fighting for a place at the front of the 77 team field… Eventually, some mistakes and miss-fortunes conspired to knock the team of Curwen, Chris Brown and Michelle Hobson out of a possible podium spot. But, they were able to link up with the team of Shuler, Paul Humphries and Erinna Wever to give what support they could in an effort to place one of the teams as highly as possible.
Stregth and determination took the day as Black Dome / Sport Factory (Shuler/Wever/Humphries) overtook all but the out-of-this-world Team EMS (1st) to take 2nd overall…The other Black Dome team was still able to crack the top 10 with a 7th place showing.
