Every step is an adventure in this race. Descending proved to be as challenging as ascending. Beautiful course of wildflowers, huckleberries, bear grass, lots of scurrying critters and endless mountains. This is one run I will keep on my race lineup. I will keep in mind to bring more water. This year was significantly hotter than last and I ran out of water as did one aid station.

I can't believe I actually did that!

The race was challenging for a first time trail run, but the views and the feeling when I crossed the finish line was so rewarding! The production of the race, the swag, the on course support was all top notch!
