It becomes a completely different race when you add in those 6 miles. It not only keeps you out longer, but it is really the last 3 to the turnaround that are the most difficult. I have always (4 times) enjoyed the 3 miles back down to treeline. I am worn out, but those 3 miles allow me to see all the work I have already done. The next 10 after that have always been difficult for me. The extra 6 miles are well worth the effort for a few reasons: 1. The view is awesome 2. You will get a chance to see how tough you really are 3. Those 6 miles will humble you I am considering doing the Double this year, but not decided yet. As for you - GO FOR IT!!!
