I run quite a bit but this one got the better of me! Really challenging course in itself but it rained the whole time!! Also, I usually wear glasses – they fogged up about 1.5 miles in and I had to give them up! Brutal and, at times, dangerous trail race/run BUT I really enjoyed it! I loved pushing myself to the limits and solving challenges I’d never faced before in real time on the course! Also, had a few fellow runners that I ran with for a bit which also makes it enjoyable – the fellowship. I’d do it again – no question!
