Perfect weather, excellent organization, and one of the best races I have ever participated in. Thank you!
No, but my friend did. :)
Quad-pounding and beautiful - don't change a thing.
Terrific race and excellent volunteers - worth the sore quads the day after. :-)
Race was as advertised,next morning felt the effects of running downhill but a good runners feeling, the out and back was the hardest for myself . The expo could use more vendors but other than that everything was perfect, immediate results Thanks Run Revel
No did not was off about 7 min but the scenery makes up for it.
It's fast downhill the uphill sections were hard after running down for so long,beautiful scenery down the canyon
Not enough Find some hills that are steep and long repeat repeat repeat
Dress warm for at the start it was cold due to being there an 1.5 hrs before the start and on top of a huge mountain
Came from Ohio 1st time west of the Mississippi River
A little cold in the morning, but when we got started the weather was great. And everyone who help did a great job. Very well done. Thank you for a Great time.
2 min slower than last year. Do to being gone all of July and not were I was supposed to be.
Great course.. I like running down the canyon at this time of year.
I run 5 days a week after work up to 5 -6 miles and Sunday's is my long run. Crossfit in the morning 5 days a week.
I wore my Sweet's and stayed warm. And used the bag the bag that u gave us and picked up my Sweet's after the race.
I went to breakfast at the local restaurant right there.
Perfect. Volunteers were awesome! Aide stations were well staffed! Loved the straight shot down hill!
No.
Great! Scenery beautiful!
Will train better next year ;)

Sign up for this race
Thank you for an amazing experience
4/5 Stars
The finish line was great with all the different vendors and variety of snacks and drinks. The waiting for the race to start was not that pleasant of an experience. If possible I would suggest heat lamps or a camp fire (since the meeting area was in a campground) or at the very least a hot drink, i.e. coffee, tea, hot chocolate.
I did set a PR. I beat my previous time by 9 minutes and that was with doing a run/walk throughout the race. Was only doing the half marathon, not qualifying for the Boston Marathon.
The scenery was beautiful, elevation didn't bother me, but I'm a Utah native.
I did primarily downhill training, and because I had access to it, ran parts of the course at least once a week which really helped.
Do the drop bag in the morning before the race, it's worth it so you don't spend an hour freezing with nothing to keep you warm. Downhill training will save you for this race.
From Utah, went and ate breakfast at Kneaders just West of the finish line.
This was my first marathon. It was the culmination of months of preparation. As race day approached, I found myself more excited than I would have guessed. The race lived up to expectations. It was very well-run. It was very satisfying to run & to finish my first marathon.
This was my first marathon. So, yes, it was a PR. (But, as my daughter would say, it was also my worst-ever marathon time!)
This course is one where the majesty and beauty of God's creations are on full display. Breath-taking!
Six or eight months of training. I followed a program that incorporates "easy" mileage three days per week with a weekly speed run, a weekly tempo run and a weekly long run. Total weekly mileage during training: 40-45 miles per week.
Train at altitude, if possible. Run some miles every week or every other week at a downhill 4 or 5 percent grade. Make a training plan and stick with it.
I visited Temple Square. Two of my sons and one of my nephews and I visited Gilgal Garden and the Joseph Smith Memorial Building (where we watched some "Meet the Mormons" movie segments in the theater.
The colors changing
No
Easy
Don't read the signs on the side of the road stating that 99% of the people in this world "can't" do what you're doing. Yes. Most can. Most won't. Inspire someone. Don't tell them about that horribly thought up sign.
Seriously. That sign! Who thought up that sign and statistic? Made up and horrible. It was mentioned by a few of us. Look, you're race is positive. Leave it that way. Avoid making stupid signs that put others down AND give wrong info. The word "can't" is powerful. Don't assume stupid things like that
See comment above. 99% positive
It was a perfect race, weather, energy, and so well organized along with friendly volunteers! Loved it!usually run with family and friends but ran alone this year. I did meet and hung out with some new great people on the bus and before the race.
I did not PR but I was not as well trained for it! I missed my PR by about 6 minutes! I did qualify for Boston by almost 40 minutes!
Beautiful and very fun! Did not love the out and back but then we do get spoiled in the canyon. I did love the three miles to the finish!
I started biking a lot this year so did not get in as many running miles as I usually do. I did get some 40 mile weeks in thiugh before. I also do a fair amount of hill training both up and down!
Felt like some weight training would have been helpful to get through the last 8 miles! My quads were mush at the finish!
Pretty much spent it with family in Farmington! Did go to the Expo and ate at Rumbies along with 100 other runners!
