Subject: RE: Little Grand Canyon MarathonWow--That just sounds like an amazing race, and awesome result! Have always sworn I won't do another marathon (unless part of an IM someday--just kinda feel like "been there, done that" ) but this one tempts me. 6,000 feet is definitely high enough to feel it at race effort. Love the description of what racing that distance feels like--so true. The attrition of runners ahead, the ego feed, almost wanting those last 5 or 6 miles to come because that's when it gets real. I never raced with a Garmin so can only imagine how pissed off I'd be getting if 26.2 came and went with no finish line! It must have really helped mentally to NOT be doing it after 112 miles of biking! |
