5 Mile Highland Cafe Railtrail Ramble in Elkins, West Virginia USA (11/12/2005)

It was Saturday morning, when I arrived at the Highland Cafe. Now I just have to wait, till the entry opens and till the rest of the runners arrived. At 10:30am there should be the start. The course was absolutely flat. Unusual for West Virginia, because all around are mountains. The event was part of a series organized by the YMCA. Instead of trophies there was a big lunch after the race for all the runners. All runners, which finished the complete series were getting a money prize.

As I already mentioned the course was totally flat. 2,5Miles at the biking path and the whole way back. The weather was also this weekend excellent. Around 60F and sunny. It is November, so there was no question about. There were around 50 people at the start. So it was again a small race, which I was already accustomed through. But that makes the hole event more familiar.
