In short: Wow - I ache after my first Grizzly but what a treat! Fab marshalls and atmosphere!
In full: What an amazing day - starting on the beach and a final run in on it makes it the hardest first and last mile you'll ever do. It is so beautiful, great support from crowds and marshalls and the buddha with incense was great!19 miles, 3500ft ascent, 5 hours something on my legs, I ache with pride today!
