Notes
I could make a book to describe this race but I'll make it short as possible. This was a tough course to say the least, with over 8300 ft of elevation change. We took it conservatively saving our energy until we finished climbing the 2 mountains, which ended about mile 34.I felt perfect til then but this was my only downpoint in the race from 34-40. The 2nd mountain drained me after 2miles up and a 1500ft climb. For the last portion starting at around mile 40 we started a surge until the end and passed about 8 runners. We put down a 2hour half marathon to close out the race. All in all it was an awesome experience. 15th place out of 76. With only 49 finishing.
