A gorgeous 50k that was too good to pass up for a PNW boy like myself.  My girlfriend and I used this race as an excuse for an epic 10 day road trip around the south west.  Full deets can be found below.

Training

You can check out my full training leading up to the race by clicking here. This race was really more of a training/fun run, so I didn’t really do anything special.  I just tried to shoot for 30ish miles/week for the weeks leading up to the race.
