    but some jerk sabotaged a spot in the course so several of us missed the turn – got BACK on course with the help of a runner’s hubby and finished albeit slowly and a little fried – but always LOVE this race. Hope my knee is up to it next year. Also love the new date.

    “ONLY” doing the 10 mile race is enough for this old lady – but it is spectacular – tough and well worth it. Well run, the scenery alone will take your breath away. I have done this stunning run 3 times and am signed up for 2019. Treat yourself to the stunning beauty and majesty of the Sierras in crisp springtime.
