Geography comparison

Just out of curiosity, I took a look at the satellite photos for the Mohican 100 compared to Rothrock State Forest:

Mohican 100 course Rothrock State Forest

They're both at the same scale. It looks like the mountains aren't going to be nearly as big. I know that this thing's in Ohio, so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. There's 11,000 feet of elevation gain over the whole thing, which is about 69% as hilly as the R3 trail in Rothrock.

I also took a look at the handful of pictures that they have on the Mohican 100 website, and none of the trails look very rough or very steep compared to Rothrock, either.

Who knows, maybe the terrain will turn out to be easier than what I've been training on.

If it sounds like I'm obsessing a little at this point, it's because I'm obsessing a lot.

    You are a sick puppy. One hundred miles of running - insane. Good luck and I’m sure you will do fine. I can’t imagine too much is rougher than Rothrock.
