"About This Event… Yes, this continues to be the ultimate running challenge and one of the most fun and unique races around. The event is held on the Indian Hills Training Center in Gilberts, IL. The 8000-meter (4.9-mile) European Cross-Country style route includes steep hills, marsh areas, open fields, mud and manure." Yup, thats right... they weren't joking when they said marsh areas... THERE WHERE TWO "RIVERS" THAT WHERE PURE MUD. Overall Very exciting, and challenging!! At 2min/mile slower then normal I got third in division, so ya, it's no cakewalk!. apologies, BF purists, in order to not kill myself i ended up wearing spikes... was definatley not one of those carrying on the shirtless tradition in one foot of snow 
Wondeering if anyone was "brave" *crazy* enough to do barefoot.
