| This was my second running of this race. It is a good climb up a road and then back down with the final ~1.5 mi on the trails. Overall, I was very happy with this race. The first half I took it relatively easy and then worked the downhill. I was only passed by one person heading up who I managed to catch on the way down. Wish they would have went deeper in the Master's divsion as the State Championship as I would have finished 3rd. This is a random distance based on the summit and trail time. Was 0.17 longer than last time with me about 2:30 slower. Glad I made it out there.
