Anyone else doing it?

Going to do the 13.1 mi trail run as my first half-mary since coming back to the endurance world. Looking at the course elevation it promises not to be flat!

Good Luck.

I'm doing the Huntsville Half this weekend. I do most of my training on trails, so I look forward to running on asphalt.

Thanks, I'll need it as it will be my longest run to date (and will likely take more than 2 hours).

Good luck on your race. Thinking of doing the Xterra Monte Sano Park 15k on January 11th (http://www.dirtyspokes.com/monte-sano-state-park/) …only because it is on the same list of races as the Oak Mountain race - and that Dirty Spokes puts on a quality show.

Are you familiar with the trails and terrain there? Hilly?

I can train for half marathons on pavement and on trails, but as soon as I change it up to gravel or loose dirt my knee swells and the pain it causes is unreal. Any ideas why this happens?

The XTERRA off-road triathlons consist of a lake swim, a mountain bike trail ride, and a trail run. I decided to try the AZ Xtreme Desert XTERRA Tri as my 1st off-road triathlon, and my 3rd tri ever.
