Day 2 of the Golden Ultra was an epic one! 57 kilometers and 2700 meters of elevation gain (and loss). I was *somewhat* prepared for it, but... probably not as well as I could have been. The course was *awesome* but it was also wickedly hard at the same time. Beautiful runnable trail followed by shitty bulldozer tracks. Amazing scenery on the alpine traverse, but impossible footing which made it mostly unrunnable. I wouldn't say that the course was "fun", but I felt accomplished having done it. And I'd probably do it again.
