Steve Anderson is taking on the full Ornery Mule Racing tour in 2026… every single OMR race on the calendar! 🏃♂️🌲
From muddy trails to long miles and finish line celebrations, we can’t wait to see Steve out there all season long. That’s a whole lot of grit, adventure, and trail family time packed into one year. 💥
Good luck, Steve! We’ll be cheering you on every step of the way.

Somehow Racine ended up in the middle of the Galena Sky 8 Hour podium crew. 😂
Ed, Will, and Lynn earned the top 3 spots in the men’s race and are showing off their handmade overall awards created by Tasha & Avery.
Between the laughs, the finish line stories, and this photo… this pretty much captures the spirit of an Ornery Mule weekend. 🖤

Some miles are for the finish time.
Some are for the conversations, laughter, and friends who make the miles feel lighter. 🖤
