Haliburton vs. Oil Creek

Trying to decide between Haliburton and Oil Creek for a 100-miler in the fall. Anyone who has done both and is able to provide feedback, it would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for comparisons on the level of technical trails, aid stations, atmosphere, logistics.

Cheers

Re: November 2013 Training Goals

November is still a "recovery/maintenance" month -- training for my next 100 miler starts the last week of November, so I will be just North of 200 km.

There will be some swimming, some weight workouts and some exercise classes -- keeping it fun and diverse until the real work begins!! :D

Re: Calling all Pacers

I didn't realize registration opened already! My plan was to run the 50 miler (guess I need to decide). I'm going to hang out with you again and will definitely be there to run and keep you company early on (if you want), and will crew you if/when I'm done like last year. Heck maybe I'll be good fo...

Last year, Robin paced me for 20 km, and Ken paced me for 40 km. It was a great opportunity to chit chat and get to know them (I had never met them before ...
