  2. Describe your race day.

    It started great. I felt good until the turn onto Wasatch Boulevard. The uphill at that point was discouraging.

  3. Did you PR?

    Yes. I beat my time by 5 minutes. I missed qualifying for the Boston Marathon by 15 seconds!

  4. How would you describe the course?

    The course was great until the turn onto Wasatch Boulevard. It was terrible going out and back on that loop. The scenery was beautiful and the weather was perfect.

  5. What advice would you give future runners?

    Prepare for extremely steep downhill. I prepared for downhill but didn't realize how steep the course was especially at the beginning.

  6. What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

    We traveled from St. George, Utah.

    I really liked the gloves, hat, and mylar blanket. The marathon shirt was made well and also fit good.
