This is a photo of Raccoon Mountain, location of stage 2 out of 3 for this race! A better race for me today. At least I felt better physically compared to yesterday! The winner posted a 2:06...I was 50min back with a 2:56! A little slower than my time from last year. Anyway, I should move up a spot or two..as the times are cumulative. Last year I went sub 10hrs for the 60miles of trails here in Chattanooga, Tn. This year that's not going to happen. After 2 stages my time is 6:58.(about 1 hr off last year). With the 3rd stage being the hardest and most technical of the 3 days.
Some highlights so far: I was getting a post race massage and a American Bald Eagle was circling
overhead. You could see it's white tail feathers and white head. That was a first for me seeing one in the wild. Also, they give a lot of swag here. Scored a pair of smart wool socks and some cool sandals.
