I did the half This is a really interesting trail. Be ready as the first half seems like it is miles of ups and sharp downs. Other runners had hiking poles with them and that would have been a major help on the uphills and balance for downhills. You cross the creek a mile or so in. It would have been worth it to have taken shoes off and kept dry socks. After the halfway point there is some nice easy trail to run on but you will likely get wet with switchbacks over the creek. There is two more punishing hills in the second half. From the last aid station it is easy going to the end. This is more advanced course for sure. Food music and beers at the end are amazing.
