I was 4th or 5th out of 21 or 22 women (results aren't yet separated for men and women and there are a couple of androgynous names), 21st out of 59 total people. Is race division an age thing, and is overall *overall*? Or overall within women? Anyway... Eric (facelessghost) won the 50K, so check out his race report! The first half was uphill, and for at least half of that I was just hiking. Parts of the course were pretty steep. It was a gorgeous venue and an almost ideal morning, though, and the routes were clearly marked, and the bagels at the end were yummy. I met my goals of finishing before 2 hours and in the top half. As I was watching all the 30K people come in I kind of wished I had done that distance, but I'll probably be pretty sore from all the hills in just the 15K. Maybe next year I'll do the 30. Splits: 9:55, 13:02, 12:38, 22:28, 11:28, 11:50, 7:39, 7:54, 8:14, 7:49, 6:25 (0.78)
