Rattlesnake Dick

We once again went to Auburn, CA, for another amazing race. This race was so much fun. It was a little warmer than the last run, but the weather is great. We were able to run with tank tops and shorts, but in the last race, I was still in my coat. So, I was so excited.

The views for this race was gorgeous. We did not start in the same place as Formidable or Jan 1, but it did not disappoint. We did get to see some of the same places, like the bridge, but the views of the River and hills did not disappoint. I did take the opportunity to take a picture with my phone. Made me a little sad because I would have loved to have my 6700, but running with that would be impossible. LOL



The trail was great. It was downhill for the first half and then back up in the second half. We did not do the half or the full, which did appear to be a little bit more challenging. However, the medal at the end is my favorite so far this season. I can not wait to go back.

As most are aware, I love trail running because of the snacks. It is my favorite part. At the halfway point, there were so many snacks. Oh, and my hubby stated he was so excited for the bathrooms there. They had juice, water, and Coca-Cola. They had energy gels, fruit, chips, and cookies. I usually can not eat while I run, but knowing that is an option is always comforting. I did enjoy a Coke. My sugar was low, and so was my caffeine.

So y'all who are looking for a little bit of a challenge or want to test a trail run, this would be a great one next year. Oh I almost forgot, this is in a state park so do not forget to stop by the library for your free pass for the day.
