"However, despite the difficult course and uphill terrain, there is only one hill and after runners get past this hill the race gets much easier."

What's a "hill", in this context? A stretch of road with much greater steepness? How much? —wwoods 16:08, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- I can't find the quote here commented on, in the article text: it was probably removed as a bit misleading. "Hill", in the context of this race's humorous motto, means "unbroken uphill stretch" and you never get PAST this one: it's all uphill (1% to 22% grade) after you cross the little creek at the bottom. Finishers disagree about which of the steeper parts are hardest. JwTwain (talk) 23:31, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
