Ran the first 3 miles of the Robie Creek course with MW to get an idea of how steep the incline will be. Definitely it won't be easy, but I think we can do it. I didn't feel too fatigued at the end (which is good since there are 5 extra miles of uphill!) and I'm more optimistic about the race than I was a few days ago. There is a nice little downhill break at the beginning before the long and treacherous climb... |
