Got worked by this hill! Was definitely not expecting how steep it got the last ~1.5 miles, and the mud from the rain this morning certainly didn't help. When you never stop for more than 10 seconds but Strava 'moving time' thinks that you did for 10+ minutes, you know you were going slow for a while...
When we got to the start I realized I left my shoes back in Honolulu, so we had to drive back 30 minutes to Runners Hi to get new ones. Probably a good thing anyway, since it was totally socked in when we first arrived but by the time I was running the clouds had mostly lifted.
This is an awesome route, and it felt fantastic to jump straight into the ocean when I finished!
