it's a real easy question if you pick it apart. I won't give you the answer, but another clue might be helpful...you are not necessarily climbing a mountain to see the sunrise because the mountain blocks it, nor or you so far in a chasm to where no light gets in there...but people go here just for this spectacular sunrise...use your key words here...5 mile run, chasm, and sunrise...the answer is there...thats how i found the answer...this contest takes a lot of reading on most of the questions...if you don't win, at least you will be a tad bit smarter...good luck...

that all depends on how deep the chasm is. Depends on the mathematical formula y=mx+b where m is the slope (rise over run). and b is the y intercept, but again you have to know how DEEP the chasm is, so I don't see how you can answer this question with the information given
