Aug-16: First-time K-Hound Jeff Newberry

"I’ve had K-Hound envy for a number of years, but this year has been unique in that the majority of my riding has been official RUSA K’s.  And I’ve also finally got my own 100K perm route, the basic building block for K-Hounding.  Finally, I had a 1200 in Colorado on the calendar, which was plenty of motivation to ride early and often."  ...  Jeff Newberry 

First-time K-Hound:   Jeff Newberry (RUSA #4574)

Where:  San Marcos Stretch 203K Permanent (route #612), crossed 10,000K just after mile 100  
Ride partners:  Rob Tulloh, Michael Wellman, Denis Kervella
