Trail Run race 2:27:00 [4] 25.0 km (5:53 / km)
Awesome race organization. Sad I had to do 25 km, but no way leg could have done 50.
I knew going into it at 1 hour ish leg pain escalates so I tried to keep a solid pace the first hour. So for the 2nd half I was gimpy with one leg. My race started at 8:30 so weather was still cool, so I did not experience the desert heat the longer distances experienced.
Desert running is nice, but to be honest I need to appreciate the diversity we have at home, as in the desert it just all looked the same.
It has been a long time that I have raced this distance, but honestly it was nice to know I would be done in a short while, minimal food and water was needed. Hmmmmm maybe I am on to something.
Browner and I then hung out, ate and ate and ate (with beers on the side) while we watched the others have awesome races.
