Meet Team Phoenix
Erin Wagar is a running enthusiast and one of the original co-directors of Phoenix Trail Races.
It is Erin that keeps us organized!
She handles a lot of the behind the scenes items such as finances, logistics, supplies for the aid stations, set up of headquarters and ordering the post-race food.
If it wasn't for Erin we might not have porta potties in the right spots or soup after the race!
