of the the long weekend). Event starts at 7:30am at Hillside Stadium.
Registration at Runners Sole Saturday afternoon or race morning up
till 7:00am.
The revised course is slightly less than 54km and not overly technical
(mostly scenic single and double track through sage desert and pine
forest... soon to be pine-bark-beetle-kill forest) but to make up for
the easy running surface we threw in some challenging elevation gain
with about 8800' total... it's all runnable and a real workout on the
calves and quads.
If you plan on coming but want to register Saturday or Sunday please
give me a heads up via e-mail with your particulars as it will make my
life easier on race morning.
Hope to see a few coastal runners come up to get some heat
conditioning, rack up a few MBCUTS points (It's also a Trailrunner
Trophy Series event) and take part in this low key Ultra.
