 Race report later.  A nice day, about 11 minutes slower than two years ago when I last ran this race.  Didn't have a climbing gear, or perhaps just didn't have the fitness because despite the climbs and descents, i'm walking pretty normally now.  Of course, a couple of those minutes were picture breaks since it was such a nice day.

That's awesome Dale, congrats on getting out there and enjoying the race! I love races where I can take a few picture breaks.

Nice job, Dale. Did you actually carry a camera?

Cell phone, so I had the added difficulty of punching in my pin every time I wanted to take a pic.
