Anyone here running the Canadian Death Race in 2007?
I am on a team now, and I am looking forward to it very much. I am running the longest leg, the fourth one - 38 kilometres. Should be interesting! The description of this leg on the official website is "total elevation change is well over 6500ft, which practically comes all at once." See more about this fantastic race at http://www.canadiandeathrace.com/ |

Well, I am still sore, although it's getting better. Leg 4 was a killer! I had a lot of fun on it; it was a fantastic feeling to reach the summit.
I had trouble with all that downhill running though. It's not my thing, and I lost a lot of time compared to other runners. Our team placed 2nd in the end, 2 min behind the winners. We were in the lead most of the race but they had a fantastic runner on leg 5. Maybe we will be back next year - would be fun to win! |
