    2. Describe your race day.

      A-mazing!! I had done the half marathon before. Full marathon was even better. I've been running marathons for 14 years and this is, by far, my favorite. So well organized. Such a beautiful course. And so fast!

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes! 3:28. My previous best was 3:46.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      I love downhill courses. If you can figure out a way to cut out any uphill, I would like it even more.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      Training for downhill is hard. I usually run UP Farmington canyon, to run back DOWN. The uphill is good training, but sort of changes muscle structure - and consumes most of the time. I haven't figured out a way to do all downhill training yet. Let me know if you have ideas!

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Good weather early, but I can imagine it could be reallllly cold this time of year, especially with rain. So I would say dress super warm in the morning. Train downhill, to get the callouses instead of blistering out. Go all out on the downhills to get ahead for the flats and uphills.

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

      Drove in from Farmington this morning. Took about 40 min to drive. Buses were well organized. You guys do a really good job. Give yourself a pat on the back! Also - thanks for the blanket, gloves, head band, all the extras in the swag bag. Makes the marathon really great.

    2. Describe your race day.

      I ran down the canyon... Haha and it was beautiful and cold, the way I like it!

    3. Did you PR?

      yes by 5 minutes, 1:33:20

    4. How would you describe the course?

      all down hill, fun

    5. Tell us about your training.

      i had a long run each week up and down hill. I built up those runs and then tapered down a few weeks before the race. I do hill and speed workouts sometimes. I have about 3 rest days or more per week

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      The second line is actually the finish. That was confusing after running a hard race. I sprinted to the end and caught some people, but I wasn't sure if I crossed unhealthy line in the moment.
      Make sure shoes are a good fit. I ran in somewhat new shoes and got blisters on my toes because they squished them. Don't wear extra clothing, then you'll have to carry it. You'll be warm enough running.
      Give it your all down the steep parts. Let loose and let gravity take you down!

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

      I'm going to school in Provo , but from Alaska. I just hung out with friends

    2. Describe your race day.

      Beautiful run and a great downhill race.

    3. Did you PR?

      It was a post baby PR by 2 minutes.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Fast and beautiful.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I don't train. I keep running so I don't have to.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Don't assume downhill is cake. You need to train down hill or you will be sorry!

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

      I woke up and fed a baby...then travel from the far off land of South Jordan.

    3. Did you PR?

      It was my first half marathon, so I guess so! I ran it in 1:43, which is just a couple minutes faster than I was hoping for!

      Everything was fantastic . The volunteers were awesome! The weather was stunningly perfect. I met a girl Sabrina from Palm Beach area and she already did the Center of the Nation. I am doing those races THIS Monday through Friday.

    3. Did you PR?

      No I set a personnel worst due to Porta potty issues!

      Scenic and tough on the quads#YEOW

    5. Tell us about your training.

      Did long runs on the weekend but played tennis and golf during the week!

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Downhill is tough. Do some up and down stair climbing if you don't have hills like UTAH.

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

      We are going to Yellowstone. We came fom Michigan and I am trying to complete all fifty state half marathons before I die!
