“Plodging through the clarts”.
That’s what we used to say when I was a kid about this sort of run. You know the sort of thing – it seems like it’s raining upwards. Your shoes get stuck in the mud and you feel as though you are running uphill all the time. It’s a 5 mile course that plays like 6. But it’s fun.
I last did this race back in 2001 (also December 2) when Tori and a bunch of her mates from Purdue Crew came. We had maybe 15-20 athletes crashed around the house – I found this old picture of some of them taken in our backyard after the race.
Here’s the results. My time 57′ 14″. 597/776.
