Coming back for a 2nd run on this beautiful but challenging race which I've done last year. As usual I made a race plan secretly hoping that I would be able to break my personal record. The above image shows the course map which is run twice.
About 30 minutes prior the start of the race I found myself at the start/finish area. Last year the race started at 5:30 AM whereas this year the start would happen at 6:30 AM.
A few minutes before the start all 50K runners are eager to get out on the course. The 25K runners would start 30 minutes later.
RD Nancy Shura is giving last minute instructions.
Last year participant and 1999 Badwater winner Eric Clifton. Last year he finished in 4:08:21 good for 3rd place.
At 6:30 AM we all are finally on our way.
Slowly but surely the day awakens too.
Running along awesome people like Yen Darcy (left) and Todd Byers (right), who's also a Ironman finisher!
The trails on this run are rather spectacular!
Slowly but surely the day awakens too.
