: : Has anybody on this forum actually run the double Dipsea? How long would it take for an "average" runner?
: Me. This was my first year. I'm 42, trained for 3-4 months and ran it in 2:36. I'm pretty average and finished in the middle of the race pack. It's a great race - just do it!
--> Depending how well you do on hills last year the "middle of the pack" came in around 2:30-3:00. But the middle on the double is not like the middle on your average race, these are people who like hills...and lots of them. The best advice is to run the course before the race.
