Leg #12: What the hill?

We started this run thinking it wasn't going to be to bad according to last years runners. They rated this run as average but we were definitely feeling more of a hard rating. Needless to say we started with a 2 mile straight uphill and we were not happy. After the 2 miles uphill, we got a nice mile downhill then nice uphill to finish. So all in all we were not happy. We are definitely hurting and the pain meds are coming out, ice is being applied, and we are elevating in the van. Hopefully we can recover some before the next run. But after dodging cars, falling in ditches, smelling a “skunk” (Clark) and dreading the hills we successfully completed it.
