Describe your race day.

Absolutely perfect. This was my first time to run this course and I loved it! Very well organized race. Thank you!
Did you PR?

No but I'm much older now and I won't ever run that fast again. However this was one of the best times I've ran in recent years! I qualified for Boston by 17 1/2 minutes!!
How would you describe the course?

Great. All of it was good.
Tell us about your training.

I felt undertrained but that might have worked out just fine for me because I had a great race.
What advice would you give future runners?

The first 5 miles I could really feel the altitude--on any up hills. After that I was fine. I live at 2200 feet above sea level.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Stayed with family. I traveled here from St George.
