Several factors to consider in this race. Starting temps can be close to freezing, elevation at the starting line, trail part of the course can really do a number on you if you arent ready, and just getting up early enough to start!
The scenery is amazing, running through the Sierra Nevada mountains as the sun comes over the ridge is definitely an amazing sight. A few small creek crossings depending on weather conditions, and some awesome vistas from beginning to end.
Tips?
-Train for trail and downhill runs. Tape your knees, both of them.
-Dress in layers, I shed two layers over the course of the race.
-Bring small snacks, the look on the faces of other racers when I brought out a twix at mile 5 confirmed that I made a good choice, and they were all jealous.
-enjoy the race.
