This was the most fantastic race I've run so far. 31 miles of amazing trails along the shore of Lake Superior in Upper Peninsula Michigan. Four peaks to climb, outstanding views from the summits, with some very runnable flatter parts between them. It started at 5am, running with headlamp in the dark for almost 2 hours. I finished in 8.5 hours, 96th of 149 finishers + 8 DNF. Photo Album
And that was pretty much exactly my goal time. I spent at least 20-25min goofing off taking over 500 pictures and enjoying the views. And I wanted to finish with no injuries and in good shape, because I'm running another Ultra this weekend.... the Painful Elimination at Comlara Park.
Two difficult Ultras in 7 days!
