Subject: RE: Toughman Half Iron Relay 3leftys - 2010-09-01 9:18 PM challenging does sound better than brutal..I am also hearing about mile 10?? Living in Northern Westchester all we do is run hilly courses so I say..bring it!!
Count down is on!! There's a pretty good hill from about mile 9 and a half to about 10 or so. Steep but not too long, but for me what made it hard was that it is towards the end of the run when it gets pretty tough mentally. If you are in Northern Westchester, then you are familiar with the terrain; hilly, plus you are always either going up or down, never really flat. I've lived in Orange County where we have similar terrain for 25 years, but I grew up in Bedford Village. Looks like we are getting cooler weather for the race which makes me very happy! Anthony |
