Describe your race day.

It was amazing. The course was beautiful and the race organization was amazing.
Did you PR?

Yes! My past half PR was a 1:37 and I ran a 1:34!
How would you describe the course?

Beautiful and fast!
Tell us about your training.

I was on a 12 week training plan but work 2 jobs and go to school so I went on probably 3/4 of the runs I wanted to. I live in the mountains so mostly trail run so next time I'll do more downhill road runs before this race!
What advice would you give future runners?

Just because it's warm when you load then busses doesn't mean it is in the canyon! And save a little for the last 3 miles of the half because it flauntens out and it can be a surprise on the legs!
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

I came from Breckenridge, Colorado and we went to the beer fest at Snowbird after!
