Describe your race day.

Very well organized, from parking, to shuttle, pre-race, course, and finish, everything went smooth!
Did you PR?

Yes. Canyon City was at about 2:35, Big Bear came out to 2:12 both half marathons.
How would you describe the course?

Beautiful scenery, the downgrade was gradual and not too steep. Elevation for the half was comfortable!
Tell us about your training.

Train down and up hills to minimize any lingering hip pain after the race. Lots of stretches before and after also helped tremendously!
What advice would you give future runners?

Weather was amazing. Not too cold and not too hot. Wear comfortable clothing.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

I live close by so fun times were spent at home, eating pizza and watching tv.
