      This was my first half marathon. It was a wonderful experience. Revel provided a very organized, safe, and celebratory event. Thank you!

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes. I made my run goal time.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Course was lovely and safe. Well marked.

      We ran down BCC about 6 times. Next time I would run the last 3 a few more times. I did 2 miles out once.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Be brave and do it - but train for it!

      We got the time print out and photo. Love having that. Also loved the band. We live in SLC near Fort Union.

    2. Describe your race day.

      Amazing boston qual day and beat time needed by15 min. First time for boston so very emotional finish line cry. Mile 21 aid station was amazing. Massaging calves and rubbing Ben gay! Thanks!!!

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes by 13 minutes

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Perfect day made it easy. No wind and sun stayed low enough until canyon exit

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I lost 16 lbs as I stopped eating most carbs and all liquor for 4.5 months. I was not fun to be around as all training and no liquor makes Brian a dull boy. Didn't miss a workout, never got sick and blew away a boston attempt in 2002 by 14 minutes

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Stop all alcohol for 4 months. Easy way to get lean

    2. Describe your race day.

      Absolutely beautiful! Everything went smoothly too! I really appreciate all the support offered along the course, and all the port a potties too. The best part of the race is definitely the scenery!! The race started exactly on time, so I commend REVEL for that!

    3. Did you PR?

      Yep! 2 minutes faster from my previous PR. Not a big difference, but huge for me because I didn't train as hard for this one as my previous PR.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      FAST! I scenery is beautiful and helps take your mind off the actual running. I'm not used to running on that steep of a grade, but I was able to manage it just fine. I didn't notice any difference with elevation.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I slacked on training this time around.. so I don't have any advice to give about training for this one.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Layers, layers, layers! It's really cold at the top and during the first 2 to 3 miles. I like to wear lots of layers and strip them off as I go along.

    7. What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

      Nothing, unfortunately. I'm already from the area and didn't stick around the race afterward. One fun thing to do after the race is to go to Octoberfest and celebrate your success!

    2. Describe your race day.

      Great race! I'd like to see more food such as chocolate milk and fruit at the finish line. I ran the half and was able to get some but the rest of my family ran the full marathon and there wasn't much of anything left, especially chocolate milk. Try to spread it out more or buy more! Otherwise I love the canyon and the race! I'll do it every year!

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes! Not sure by how much but I did!

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Beautiful!

    5. Tell us about your training.

      Sadly I didn't get as long of runs in but I did well today! My longest run was 5-6 miles before this half marathon.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Train!

    7. What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

      Traveled from Pleasant Grove, stayed in midvale with my sister.

    2. Describe your race day.

      I ran 16 miles ending at 2 am race day as a sweeper for the Wasatch 100. I think I left my legs back somewhere near Spruces Campground

    3. Did you PR?

      No

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Great. I prefer trails.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      Didn't.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Do LOTS of "road" downhill in training.

    7. What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

      Helped a fellow Wasatch 100 Conrad into mile 47 aid at midnight. She was cramping and couldn't get anything to stay in her stomach.

      Great race guys but I think I will stick to the trails. First time doing this run, but find road running numbing to my head. Greatm, great course for marathoners though.
