This was definitely a unique race. Decided to just have fun with this one and make it a good workout. Started out at the base of a mountain, were we ran a 5k uphill (15% grade a road sign said, crazy!) and then transitioned into snowshoes and ran 4 more miles on a switchback trail to the summit. Probably the hardest race of my life. On a side note, I won the race (or trail run or whatever you want to call it ha), broke the course record by 8 minutes, and won a trophy and cake yeti head! fun day! |
