6:50 – 8:01<\/h3>\n\t
This is a handicapped race.\u00a0 If you have never run a handicapped race before, you are in for a different sort of experience.<\/p>\n
Wave times have been calculated based on the finish times seen over the last couple of years.<\/p>\n
The goal is to manipulate things (by giving different groups a head start) so our top finishers come from many different waves (sex\/age groups).\u00a0 Given the time constraints, small field and huge variations in speed of runners from year to year, it’s a nearly impossible task.\u00a0 But still we try!<\/p>\n
Most importantly, don’t take the race or yourself too seriously.\u00a0 This isn’t that dog-eat-dog, one-direction race that people orient their entire training (and life) around.\u00a0 This is the event Walt “Start Slow and Taper Off” Stack started.\u00a0 If you can enjoy the trails and the company you’re with, you’re already a winner!<\/p>\n
