I Am the Beast

But not the one you think — or maybe that one!

Just as Japan has a rabbit island, so does Old Fair Oaks, CA have hundreds of chickens and wild roosters.

However, let’s not get down the rabbit hole, or the chicken one, since this story is about the yearly chicken five-mile race. Runners not only race the roosters roaming the streets, but they actually have four infamous hills to climb: Grand Daddy hill, Hernia hill, the Beast, and The Last Gasp.

I ran this race for the first time and enjoyed running over hills, through rocks by the river single-track path, and on a gravel road.

As I finished the gravel section, one of the volunteers cheered on us to run strong on the Beast hill.

My response to him: “I am the beast.”
