Are you getting excited for HC?? :)

Oh yes, but mostly I am freaked out about the downhill. Hobble is rated the fastest half marathon in Utah. SCary! Halloween half wrecked my quads, I can't imagine it any worse!

Just think of it as being in the Pain Cave for about an hr... You'll crush it.

Yay!! You will do great at HC! I have ran down that canyon quite a few times and it is a very gradual downhill, nothing like the halloween half. I am not racing it but will be there to cheer you on and I can run a few miles with you if you want.

From Lily on Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 12:00:05 from 67.199.178.210

Rachelle can you pace me the last 3 or 4? I would love it!

From Lily on Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 12:03:10 from 67.199.178.210

or maybe that's selfish. Anywhere you wanna run with me would be super awesome :)

From Merri on Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 12:24:35 from 160.7.252.148

Yeah I loved Hobble Creek when I did it 3 years ago. I didn't think it was too steep, although it is downhill. :) good luck.

They don't call it Hobble Creek for nothing.

Who's they?

From Rachelle on Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 14:41:01 from 159.212.71.200

Yeah Lily I will try to meet you for the last 3 miles for sure!! I am not exactly sure of my plans yet because I have lots of friends I want to cheer on but most of them will be way behind you so I will plan on it. :)

I really think you will do great. Just be confident in your training and "relax and flow."

Don't you even fret my love The hill is gradual. You got this!

that was before the AF canyon half and halloween half was invented (fastest half comment for HC). but I prefer slightly downhill to calf and quad killer ones so HC to me is faster for this reason-- it drops only 1250 ft compared to the AF half of 1750 ft. YOU ARE GOING TO RUN VERY WELL, I can feel it too!! WAY TO GO LILY!! :D
