I ran the VRRT out & back, solo and unsupported. Started with 4,500cal and 3L of water in my vest (refilled water twice from Cascade Falls ~miles 20 & 44. I ran the "out" (Wood's Ranch Park to Strawberry Point) in 7:36:34, before turning around and running (mostly walking) back to Wood's Ranch Park for a total time of 18:17:47.
Started at Wood's Ranch Park at 7:06am. Felt good, running comfortably most of the way out. Perfect daytime weather and beautiful scenery. Biggest obstacle was the fallen trees that have yet to be cleared by trail crews since Winter. I counted 144 fallen trees blocking the trail over the 32 miles. Pushed pretty hard the last couple miles to Strawberry Point and finished at 2:42pm. I struggled a lot more than I expected on the way back. Not sure what exactly was wrong but I had very little energy and walked the majority of the time. Finally finished at 1:23am.
