Mica Mountain Marathon

"He took to the country roads and wooded trails with great energy, comparing his impressions to his historical or fictional counterparts. He decided that no one had quite captured the strained satisfaction of tooling thorough the middle miles of a hard fifteen mile run; but then he thought some experiences do not easily lend themselves of mere word butchers. It was a good thing he decided, not to have everything available in capsule form."-

What I ran that day. (start at 2500 ft.-top out at 8500 and back down.) 6 hrs. and something....I would have to go find the archives...
