This race was graced with great weather and beautiful, huge trees. The first half of the race was foggy, but the sun broke through as we headed back, and made the shade of the redwoods even more delightful. Even if it isn’t the fastest half I’ve ever run I’m really looking forward to doing it again next year, and maybe even camping out before the race like the men’s team. We had excellent representation on the ladies open and master’s teams, especially for a race that is so
