if you're going to do it, here's some info... be prepared for a very high level of skiing. rest up... it's all hiking, all day and it gets tiring. make sure you get on that registration shit ASAP when it opens on active.com. I've done it the past three years and spots fill up super quick. Bummed i won't be able to make it to r2r this year. it's a super fun comp, have a blast and good luck.
