one day left to register online for this one...any idea what this course is like? last race i believe of the PACX schedule. nothing left except the feb 7 college park MD race (hope it's icy).

i wasn't planning on doing this one, but now the taste of blood is in my mouth and my ears are ringing...

just looking to see who's going and what to expect (hills, terrain...)

i hear this is an older race making a comeback.

haven't registered, but only 111 miles away on a saturday isn't undoable at all:

finally uploaded some pics from later races...this was so worth the 120+ mile trip. the trip back was horrendously wonderful (snow snow snow)
