What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?
I drove from Tooele Utah that morning. Left my house at 3:30am. The canyon didn't feel that cold and it was a nice area. The finish area was the best I have seen. So organized and thought through. I loved the cold towel to clean up a bit. Very nice touch.
Love this race. Thank you thank you thank you!
