Ran the Holcomb Valley trail run race course today with Anne. The course starts on the shore of Big Bear Lake (elevation 7000 ft) and heads up quickly from there. The first 2 miles climbs the steep, rocky Cougar Creek trail to meet the Pacific Crest trail. From here the trail somewhat levels out and follows dirt roads until climbing again around mile 7 to meet the PCT again. The course follows the PCT back to Cougar Creek trail then back down the steep rock trail to return the starting point for 15 miles. Being that I mostly run around desert areas, running at elevation was really hard!
