There's a pretty serious climb right after No Name Creek. Once you're up that, THEN it gets easier most of the way to Barr Camp. The trail is wide and you should be passing all the people who went out too hard early in this stretch.

Wow, this is why good people like Tinman and JD got chased away from this message board. The ridiculous and unnecessary insults make this board barely tolerable.

I have done the Ascent and Marathon. I would highly recommend that this week you run up to barr camp and back down, its the halfway point and will make for a really solid final long run as well as a perfect predictor for you for race day, BC is the halfway point up and typically you can double your BC time and get your finish time (unless you suck really really bad above treeline like some people).
