Amazing as always! Revel does an amazing job which is why I love your races. How do we ditch part of that out and back???

YES! For my fourth Revel marathon I have PRed every time!!

Amazing! I really feel like this race is faster than canyon city, even withnour horrific out and back! How do we ditch it so it's a milenoutand a mile back? There has to be 2.2 miles somewhere! Even 1.5 out and 1.5 back!

Trained the course every weekend to every other weekend.

Train the course! If you're coming in from out of town, good luck! I'd say this is one tough marathon to train for for out of towners due to the elevation, and the out and back. The only way to stay on top of that is muscle memory and training it.

It wasn't what I had expected. Although it was down the hill but it's still a hill race which is curved hurt my back really badly. The steep slop on 3-4 miles should be scraped out, I hated that badly.

Yes but did not meet it.

Tactic but well organized

I ran 20 miles once, 18 twice and several 13-15 miles practice but never a trail race practice. The closest I got to do one was the Dam Train trail race in midway.
I will practice more on hills.

Practice longer if you can go for more that 20 miles please do and make it a hill race.

Meet some interesting people with Amazing stories and the volunteers were awesome. They kept encouraging us.

The beautiful run down the Canyon. All the awesome volunteers at the stations.

I did not this year, but good with my time.

Beautiful and will help you down the Canyon.

Training wasn't so good for me this year I only got up to 6 miles before the race. I would highly recommend you run as many miles as you can before the race.

Layer for the wait before the race...it's cold up there.

Hung out with people before. I enjoyed my metal of course, food, drinks, and pics after the race!

This was one of the best supported races I've participated in. Very well done!!

My PR for this race was about 10 mins improvement over my previous PR.

The course was amazingly beautiful, but very steep!!

Train for steep declines!! This race totally works your legs!!

Overall it was great, however, corals would be great. The first mile was so congested and full of walkers that it was my slowest mile causing me to miss a PR opportunity.

2 seconds from a PR.

Fast and beautiful. Would love for it to end at the base of the mountain instead of running though town.

Take a throw away blanket or old towels that you can throw away before the race starts. These, combined with the Mylar blanket, will keep you warm.

Hot spring crater, rafting, heber valley cheese tasting, Sundance resort, zip lining and Gonzo sunset cruise.

Yes. by nearly 4 minutes. I did not qualify for Boston.

Beautiful.

Downhill training is a must. My wife and I took turns driving each other to top of our local hill and running down. I also was able to make improvements with the addition of interval training to my workouts each week.

Run downhill. The more you train downhill the better.

Pretty scenic run through a challenging downhill course.

No

Serene, beautiful scenery until the last 5 miles of the course. Downhill grade was very challenging with some very steep grades.
Last 5 miles on Union street were anticlimactic and somewhat disappointing . Did not enjoy running in the middle of stop and go traffic.

Didn't really train for 18 miles of downhill. Went faster than planned but burned out at the end

Train downhill. Bring super warm clothes to where while waiting for race to start at Guardsmans Pass. It was very cold. Wish I brought a cap.

Visited Temple Square and did light hiking.

This is the 4th year I've run this race and each year just gets better and better. The course is gorgeous, the volunteers are amazing, the swag is awesome, the medals are huge, and the finish line is a party. Best race in Utah!

Not this year

Gorgeous, fast, well organized, fun

I live in Salt Lake, so I like to train in the canyons for our Saturday long runs. You must build your "downhill" legs for this race.

Just do it!

I drove 15 minutes from my house to catch the bus. One of the reasons I love this race is because its local.

I liked the new start for the half. When we were in the campground we didn't get any announcements and last year we didn't know it had even started! The volunteers for this race are so great! They are encouraging and fun. It was a great race, beautiful weather and great course! My only complaint was that there was only one station with fruit for the half marathon. We would have liked a couple more stations with some fruit. We had nothing in the tank when we crossed the finish line.

Nope!

Beautiful and course and mostly downhill, at least for the half marathoners!

We trained running down hills to get our legs ready

Train downhill! It is 10 miles downhill for half marathoners and 19 for full marathoners. Bring warm clothes for the start line. It gets cold that time of year in the canyon!!

We only live about 45 minutes away....
