Date: Nov. 7, 2026 Participant: Barbara Rausch #3179 Race: 2026 REVEL Big Bear Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Barbara Rausch vs. 2019 Barbara: Big Bears favorite friendly rivalry rolls on Barbara Rausch, a Big Bear regular, came down into Redlands in 2:42:21 and added another finish to her mountain-to-foothills story. Her 2019 REVEL Big Bear self still has the bragging rights at 2:11:46, but with Barbara, that rematch always feels like its just waiting for another morning on the mountain. She opened with a really solid first quarter in 35:35, settling in well after that cold Forest Falls start. From the pines up high to the finish-line welcome in Redlands, Barbara kept moving all the way home and earned every bit of that iced-towel finish.
