Stretching.

Fatigue and hard training session the day before.

Event comments:

Definitely would recommend this race for anyone thinking of getting into trail racing. Very well run and organized for a "no frills" race. The race fee was a suggested donation of $5. And it's the same for the 10mile "Fox Trot" course.
