I have run 69 Half Marathons in 2-1/2 years. This is the hardest yet. Actually, it’s tied. I have run up Mt. Montara twice. Each run was extraordinarily difficult, more than Angel Island or the Dipsea. It’s about 3000 feet of vertical gain.
On this race, there was a woman really struggling. It was her first trail run. The guy with her, a husband or father or coach, was trying to encourage her. I felt bad for her.
So I write with what is an invitation or a warning depending on your perspective. It’s a great run, but be aware it is not easy. I would not make it a first trail run unless you are a very strong athlete. The one big hill is a doozy.
