10K Intro
The gateway drug. River trail to the first overlook and back. You will finish wanting more. That is the whole point.

Finish Time
Mile 28. Quad completely shot. Rain hammering the ridgeline. I had no idea I was going to make that summit until I was already on it. That's Stride.

Pre-dawn. Headlamp on. 200 runners breathing fog into the dark. The trail disappears upward into something you can't yet see. That's exactly the point.
