Fort Yargo Thrill the Hills XDURO 21k 2009

The weather played a huge roll in this one. TRUST ME.

If all started the day before when it rained in the Atlanta area ALL day. Then it decided to rain all night Friday night. Then it rained for some of the race. The course is a great variety of single track, double track, and rolling hills. This was all washed out. Footing was horrible, and at some points it was faster to speed walk. The conditions cost me around 15 extra minutes, but I just decided to have fun and not fall. A ton of people did fall. I did finish in the top 300 so I did get a finishers medal. Finishing time 2:17:00 avg pace 10:27 /mile

ING Marathon is the next race!
