ooh those look cool! Did you have a good experience there? Did you get anything to wear on your knee?

jess said...

yes... very cool.
the guys there were awesome. they totally laughed at the shoes i was running in and said 'no wonder' when i told them my knees were killing. they said they would be shocked if new shoes didn't totally solve the problem and to come back in a few weeks if i was still in pain. thanks for the recommendation! (and by the way- have you looked at the course at all? one of the guys there has done it several times and was telling me about it...

Well, what did he say? Please tell me its flat!

brooke said...

Uh oh. What did he say? I never did go drive it. Is is really hard?? I was thinking the other day that I never did go drive it and I hoped there weren't too many hills! Crap!

you guys are soo funny. he actually said that there is a big down hill and a gradual uphill... lots of variety. i guess the beginning has the downhill, so he said to be sure to take it slow even though it feels like you could blast through the beginning. he said he's had some great races there and some hard ones... you just have to pace yourself. it will be fine i'm sure.

my last half had a long downhill at the beginning. It was nice to get a good start, helped you start at a good pace too. It was hard though to do the uphill at the end, but I made it. You had me scared for a minute!
