The Usual Holland Glen

Lincoln Loop

Wouter's Farewell Run

Flagg Mt Loop

A twofer!! This is a very challenging course with a lot of elevation and technical. My main goal was the loop. I started with the Mohawk Trail and pushed fairly hard trying to see if I was within striking distance, being careful not to push too hard and burn out for the AT section. Todd Curtis put up a very strong time. Around mile 16 I was pretty well ahead of him though and figured I had it, but he must of hammered the final 8 miles because I had to push really hard to get it, and it made the rest of the loop really tough. I took a long break at a stream, which reduced my lead over where Ben N was at that point on his loop FKT, but it was necessary. I recoverd and pushed through the pain cave, and kicked in the high gear at the end to go sub-7.
Mohawk 4:14, previously 4:19
Loop 6:53, previously 7:32
Update: I forgot that the begining of the run is a road section on the AT, and does not count for the Mohawk Trail. After subtracting that out, my official time is 4:11:05. (Note that the segment still includes some of the road). So I guess I had a little more breathing room then I thought, but the pressure I felt at the end just made the final time a little more robust!
