Overview:

HalfREV: Athletes will have 9 miles of relatively flat terrain before the first climb.  You will experience a series of long climbs, technical descents, switchbacks, and breathtaking scenery with views of Mt. Hood.  There is a total of 2500 feet of climbing before you get to spin your legs out on flat roads for the last 13 miles of the bike course to get ready for the run.  This bike course is challenging but fair and visually spectacular.
