Per James, today:
I told him from the start it was hilly. He said, “Noooo, it’s not hilly, it’s flat!”
If I complete my goal of 20 miles during this run, I will have climbed almost 2000 feet… and if he completes his 50K, he will have climbed about 3500 feet.
So there ya go. It’s hilly. Because everywhere you go in the Pacific Northwest is hilly.
It’s like I said to my sister-in-law, Charlotte: The Thyon-Dixence race undulates a bit, but it’s not hilly. Then I discovered it was 700m or 2,200 ft of ascent in about 13 miles. Things always seem less in metres! 🙂

You’re right! 700 doesn’t look as daunting as 2200 does, hahahaha! However, I’m sure the legs and bum would completely disagree with that sentiment! 😀

Yes, PNW is definitely hilly. Scratch that, it’s mountainous! We’re hilly. 🙂
So good luck with that.
