Describe your race day.

Overall it was great, however, corals would be great. The first mile was so congested and full of walkers that it was my slowest mile causing me to miss a PR opportunity.
Did you PR?

2 seconds from a PR.
How would you describe the course?

Fast and beautiful. Would love for it to end at the base of the mountain instead of running though town.
What advice would you give future runners?

Take a throw away blanket or old towels that you can throw away before the race starts. These, combined with the Mylar blanket, will keep you warm.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Hot spring crater, rafting, heber valley cheese tasting, Sundance resort, zip lining and Gonzo sunset cruise.
