    @heytimsla - which Beast did you sign up for and how far out is it? What is your current fitness like? Most Beasts are 14-16 miles. The cardio aspect is huge. Make sure your training is built up appropriately to that distance though. Trying to force mileage like that can lead to injury. Definitely don't underestimate the terrain....if you are doing Killington or Tahoe - you will climb and climb and climb the vertical gain! Feel free to message me with more specific questions.....
