Notes
For a 20 mile run, this felt pretty good. I ran what would be considered miles 6 to 25 of the race (approximately) with a little extra to get to twenty. I think I've decided that there a few places on the course that I might walk for maybe 30 seconds on race day, as they are quite steep and short. Or ... maybe not. I'm not sure this is a course I can get a 3:30 on, but I'll see how it goes on race day. Nice day for running, with just a little wind.
The road on Campobello will be quite congested on race day. Runners will be on both sides of the road. I was exchanging e-mails last night with the race director, and he gave me a sneak preview of a note he plans to send to race participants, and he'll be looking for minimal traffic on the road during the race. Note that the route has changed since the original design. Previously there were a couple loops of Roosevelt Inernational Park included, but they are gone now. There also used to be a bit of detour through Wilson's Beach which has been removed too. It's now lighthouse-to-lighthouse and back.
