Notes
Back on leg 13 again this year. It seemed harder this year, but only because I was woefully undertrained. My pace was faster than what I predicted, but slower than I'd have liked it to be. My foot hurt every time I hit a tree root or didn't step flat, but it wasn't too bad. Last year I changed the distance to match the 4.7 the course says it is supposed to be, but since my Garmin said 5 again this year and I felt every step of the extra .3, I'm counting it all!! I was pretty pissed at 4.7 when I didn't see my team til I remembered the exchange was on a gravel road not a 2 track, but I had no idea how far off they were and knew I didn't have much left in me. Another fun year on the NCT though! Can't wait for next year!
