The course is set up with Urique in the center, and all runners do out-and-backs to surrounding towns. The result is that throughout the entire race, you wind up passing runners coming in or going out. Yips and shouts of “¡ánimo!” and “¡bien hecho!” abound, with the occasional “¡chócola!” for a high five. Our souls understand this language, and I saw this duplicated on the running trail and in many other experiences that week. Do you have a column, tip or idea for High Country Running?
