Another tough marathon at Hatcher Pass. This one was identical to last month's Hatcher Pass Marathon except it started where that one had finished, and ended where Hatcher Pass Marathon had started. Hatcher Pass is basically all uphill, while Archangel is mostly downhill. But the first two miles are steep uphill up to Summit Lake. But that is followed by a very steep few miles straight back down the other side. After that, the course is still basically downhill, but is relatively gentle and not always obviously downhill. There are also flat and uphill sections. The road descends the mountain and follows the creek but it still follows the natural contour of the land. I do love downhill runs though. I shaved 2 hours off my time for the Hatcher Pass Marathon.
