– Ten mile loops, aid station about halfway
– Starts at the same time as the 20 mile race = good companionship out on the course
– A bit of overlap with slower 5k runners, not a huge issue, but was in a section that was difficult to pass
– Wide first 1/2 mile, with a big climb = great to get situated before the trail narrows
– Nice variety of terrain and scenery along the loop – did not feel repetitive
– Good aid station supplies and volunteers
– Didn’t know there was a finisher medal, didn’t get anything when I finished.
– Tough time of year weather-wise, but you know that going into it — we lucked out in 2023 with no rain and freezing weather — so the mud was frozen!
