This morning I made the mistake of looking at the elevation chart for Lean Horse this weekend. I'd guess between 7,000 and 9,000 feet of climb and decent. I thought this was supposed to be flat! I really am not looking forward to the first and last 15 or so miles. It looks like those miles have the bulk of that climb and decent. The rest of the course (miles 15-85 or so) is run on an old railroad bed, which apparently doesn't climb or fall more than 3% at any time. But even 3% if it goes on for 5 miles can get pretty tiring.
Despite my now fear of the run, I made it out for an evening 4 miler. 39:50. Nice and easy.
