Are you doing Hope to Hobble on Sat? I can do a vehicle.

I'm out Dave. I may have to hit it another time this year. You guys will have a blast I'm sure :).

Yes but you will be missed.

Dave - Where are you parking a vehicle? I'm planning to come tmr but am a little nervous about the full distance since I haven't ran more than 15 since UVM. I'd kind of love a ride at the 20 mile point...

I was going to park it at the Hobble Creek Golf Course at mile 23, but I could leave it at mile 20 and then you could drive it to 23 and pick the crazy guys up :)

But I would still need a pickup at 5:25 in Mapleton since I can't do two vehicles by myself.

Dave - thanks so much for the offer but you most definitely do not need to do that. I am thinking there may be other cars parked at mile 20 I could grab a ride with if necessary. I'm also torn because I have a race Mon and am afraid this will beat my legs up....but I really want to do it so hopefully I will see you there. :)

Don't worry, the run is deceptively easy as the last half of it is easy to moderate downhill. You'll do fine as long as you keep hydrated.

Rachelle you will be fine :). It's a very fun and beautiful run. The last 11-12 are all down hill cruisers. Have fun!
