Jayron and I left on Friday afternoon to take the Anacortes car ferry to Orcas. It was about an hour long ride and a 25 minute drive to get to our hotel.
The race was pretty challenging with about 4,000 feet of elevation gain. Unfortunately it was stormy out and at the top of the mountain it was blustery and slightly snowy so there weren't any decent views to be had. You can get a glimpse of what the runners had to deal with from this picture I took in the hotel room before the race. The storm clouds are moving in on the mountain we ran up, seen on the left:
Overall, it was a great event and I give a lot of credit to the organizers who did a great job, especially with the food and keg after the race.
