Here are my splits and times. Don't laugh unless you want to do it yourself.
Code:
Mile Cumulative 1-mile Altitude change
1 12:49 12'49" +305ft
2 28:48 15'59" +386ft
3 43:00 14'12" +211ft
4 56:52 13'52" +220ft
5 1:14:34 17'42" +462ft
6 1:42:13 27'39" +800ft
7 2:09:35 27'22" +391ft
8 2:25:48 16'13" -365ft
9 2:36:51 11'03" -604ft
10 2:47:43 10'52" -506ft
11 2:59:00 11'17" -523ft
12 3:14:16 15'16" -316ft
13 3:27:40 13'24" -331ft
My watch measure it at 13.6 miles, so I don't have the last .6 mile split. |
Is this a trail or road course? Not laughing at all. Just hiking that elevation can be brutal. I can't imagine trying to run it.
