PRT Year in Review

Though 2011 is about to come to end, Prado Racing Team is just getting started. The fall Dirt Dog Cross Country series concluded on November 12th, and PRT made a strong showing in its first year. In competitive men's and women's open fields, PRT men claimed 8 of the top 20 spots in the series and the women took 7 of the top 20 spots.

After a long cross country season, PRT is now preparing for the 2012 spring season, with road races, marathons, and track meets on members' calendars. Looking back, a few highlights of PRT's inagural year:

- PRT's debut race at the USA Cross Country Nationals (San Diego, CA), February 5th
