I think this counts as something that it's better to have done than it is to do.
Nearly 1000 meters of climbing is insane. Great time, given the climbing!
Well, now I know where I can train for a marathon in my hometown, Salt Lake City. The humidity and the temperature matches well. Despite the name, the city itself is not salty (except in February, when the snow machines have done their work).
