    This race was old school ultrarunning as its finest. I am really jealous about the Albuquerque Trail Running crew that put on this race, because there isn’t anything like this in the small town where I live. I thought everything was perfect (except the wind – but I’m used to that where I live on the Great Plains). There was one aid station on the 3.5 mile loop, which was supplied by donations made by the runners and there were plenty of treats and hydration to supply the needed nutrition. Laps were tallied on a poster board with a permanent marker. There was a long upslope along one side of the course, which meant that we were able to go down hill along the other side, but nothing steep. Handmade finisher awards were given out which were quite well done. All in all, a good time was had by all for a very minimal registration fee.
