This is the end of Daniel's 2K race.
Daniel's race started on a flat plain then down and up a small hill. He ran across another plain then turned left and climbed up a long steep hill before turning left and running down a long gradual grade. He finished the last half mile by running down and up a small hill and finishing on the second plain.
