yea you got to remember that bandimere is nearly 2 miles off sea level im going to lose about a second atleast from sea level
bandimere is about the only place in the Denver/Springs area that you can run the 1/4[]. I think theres a program somewhere that lets you calculate your times at sea level, even though i wouldnt count it as a real run, its still pretty interesting.

Be sure to post times when you get them though.
