Tell us about your race (limit 500 words)…: This is one of the toughest trail races I’ve experienced and it gets no easier the 4th year…the inclines are as steep as they come and the just-as-steep downhills don’t cut you a break! But…the course is beautiful with a waterfall and a finish across a bridge. The race director is awesome as are the volunteers and park crew. This year I learned the value of z4/5 HR training in peaking for Duathlon Nationals my previous 2 years…that was not the case this year and my time showed it!!
