The mission bay xc course is a set up like i have never seen before. The 2k loop that will be run 6 times, is in a very small area of the park. the best way to describe it is like a roller coaster. you are pretty much either turning right, left, or going up or down small hills. the start stretch runs about 350meters which is a nice however i like the flow of this technical course... the final wrap around turn on the bell lap should be crazy.
i am at my cousins place in ocean beach just chillin. it is getting cool out here at 5pm.
I ran the race when it was held there in 2008. Fun course. Very flat 600m opening, which meant the race started fast. Windy coming back along the palm trees, and then the little rollers in the middle, by the end, became challenging.
ReplyDeleteThe race being in the afternoon made it quite warm, be sure to stay hydrated and crush it out there!!
Wish I could have made it this year, I wouldn't have attempted running but I would have liked to checked it out.
