Describe your race day.
the experience was great. Transportation was great. Organization was good. I loved it.
-
Did you PR?
Yes.
-
How would you describe the course?
Beautiful. The out and back after the canyon is brutal after having enjoyed the downhill of the canyon. On day after I am still dreading it :), but, I thought the course was good. I think it could have used some more variety at the aid stations, perhaps adding in some pretzels or something salty every so often.
