On the morning of Saturday April 10th I drove down to Hemlock Regional Park along the Occoquan River in Clifton, Virginia to run my second Bull Run 50 Miler (see previous post from the 2009 race below). The Bull Run Run is a 50.4 mile trail run in the rolling hills of the Virginia countryside alongside the Occoquan River with two out and back loops (see the map of the course below) that includes ~6300 feet of climbing throughout. "The BRR is a beautiful, tough run on the Bull Run Trail in 
Northern Virginia sponsored by the Virginia Happy Trails Running Club. The run's unique character includes a Civil War theme that respects the battles that occurred here many years ago. The BRR is a difficult challenge, but many have finished it. It is not easy, but it is not brutal. The BRR is not for casual runners, but if you like to run trails, come enjoy a day in Virginia's spring beauty as we honor those who fought here many years ago."
50.4 mile trail race. Finished in 10 hrs 37 min.
