Fragile Flowers Adventure Racing

This weekend we will be cheering on our very own Olga Huber as she will be representing AR community and Fragile Flowers AR team at Western States 100 miler in Squaw Valley CA, with 5 am start on Saturday, June 26. That will be Olga's 4th 100 miler trail race. Following team's all-female tradition Olga will be paced by an all-female crew consisting of her 16-year old daughter Maria Huber, her partner's John daughter Teresa Peltier and her Fragile Flowers teammate Shea Coleman. The whole crew will be sporting a brand new Fragile Flowers team shirts! Please, follow Fragile Flowers FB page for the race updates on runner # 215. With the weather reports up to 103 degrees over a weekend the goal is to finish under 30 hours, so do not send warm wishes, instead send some clouds and cool encouraging thoughts.

Fragile Flowers Adventure Racing was officially born on September 9, 2020 when a few adventurous women in Rochester area got organized. We started to share knowledge, expertise, and a few laughs :)
We put our training to the test in the spring 2021 at Shenandoah Epic 24-race in Virginia, Trilogy 6-hour race in Grafton NY and Two Rivers 15-hour and 36-hour races in Morris PA.
Today, May 9, 2021 we are turning a tender age of 9 months, still a small baby really. But there is nothing small about our accomplishments so far. In the recently updated USA Adventure Racing Association National Ranking not only we rank 1st in the all-female division, we ranked 4th overall, behind three very established veteran co-ed teams with years of experience.
We are looking forward to more races this year, including Maine Summer AR, Wilderness Traverse in Canada (really hope the borders will reopen by August), as well as a trip to Wisconsin in September for USARA National Championships.
Go Fragile Flowers!
