Returning to Big Boy Races

Saturday marked the first time I've done what I call "Big Boy" trail races since last November.I was not especially trained for the hilly terrain, but gave it a shot.It was embarrassingly slow, included a downhill tumble, and I considered quitting a couple of times. Mind you, it was "only" a 5-mile (actually, 5.4-mile) distance.I finished, humbled but determined to keep going through challenging things instead of giving up.
