Robie Creek

Robie Creek the scenery on the way to the race!

Elevation Gain for the Race
Tomorrow is the big day for Jeff and about 2300 other people, it is the day they torture their bodies as they do the toughest half marathon in the Northwestern United State. It is the date that many people forsake their toenails for a t-shirt and their name with their race results in the newspaper the following day.

Okay so maybe that is a bit dramatic but I cant imagine why anyone would want to put their body through that kind of pain. You can see how hard of a run it is from the graphic. I am just hoping that Jeff will not injure himself. He has had some trouble with one of his tendon's so if it is really bad he may not be able to race at all, it would be sad to see him miss the race especially since he has trained for it this year...Hopefully at the end of tomorrow we will just have some race photos to post and not some bad news that he couldn't race...stay tuned
