That was horrible. I am not overly fond of that course. A lot of people really liked it, but I guess I didn't have enough hill/speed training to enjoy this one. The course was at soldier hollow (the finish line for Ragnar). A lot of the course was actually part of the 2002 olympic cross country ski course. There was way too much uphill, and the downhill was all so steep, that it hurt just as bad as the uphill did. I tried to go out kinda slow, to save energy for the hills, but something made me speed up way sooner than I should have. The time wasn't great but the course was difficult. Really wish I could have placed better, there was a really big pack about 10 seconds ahead of me that I wish I could've beat but oh well.
