Before I ran this race someone had told me, “Hills don’t care about your feelings”. This mantra kept me going throughout this entire race. I knew there were hills (see elevation chart below) – and there usually are on a good trail race – but the hills on these were no joke. But with that mantra in mind, a sunny, crisp late winter day, it felt like a great day for the Oregon Trail Runs…
Spring is in the air and the hope for in-person racing events is finally becoming more of a reality. Trails are good for the soul, and the 2021 Alsea Falls Spring Fling is coming our way on March 14th. You’ll have your choice between a half marathon (actually 11.1 difficult course miles,) a 10k which is 5.7 miles, and a 5k as well. This event will occur at a gorgeous location at the Alsea Falls…
