The Wrap
Coldwater Mountain just hosted a full weekend of racing: mountain bikers took on the trails Saturday, and trail runners followed Sunday at the Coldwater Trail Race. The Northeastern Alabama Bicycle Association hosted it at the Doug Ghee Nature Preserve and Recreation Area, and the courses included a 40-mile race. That's a lot of mountain for one weekend. Legs, we salute you.
