Describe your race day.

The first 19 fantastic. 19-22, death run. Appreciated the 3:40 pacer who I had made promise me there weren't anymore rolling hills. He was great. Just enough encouragement to help me refocus my mind.

Love the sunrise at the top.
Did you PR?

No
How would you describe the course?

Loved the canyon. The there and back section was a little bit long and not in the most gorgeous setting!

I enjoyed some years ago when it went through the town or paved paths and neighborhood.
Tell us about your training.

To run a descent I need to practice descent. Note: need more descent in my training.
What advice would you give future runners?

Keep your throwaway gloves until you are near the bottom of the canyon and can feel the sun.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Hmmm. Liked the Hyatt they were incredibly accommodating.
