Describe your race day.

I loved running through the clouds. Just a great coincidence with the weather :)

Loved the idea of an outdoor expo, too bad it was rainy and soggy.
Did you PR?

Yes! PR'd by 7 minutes and BQ'd by 16 seconds.
How would you describe the course?

Course was great. Could you please change the pacers to 2 minutes under BQ? For example, 3:38 pacers, as opposed to 3:40 pacers. I ended up looking back to make sure they were not catching up to me.
Tell us about your training.

I didn't do much long downhill training but I think it worked to my advantage since today I am walking like a duck. If I did that in training I would've had to sit out for one week to recover.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Hot tub, hot tub and more hot tub. The downtown Redlands area was happening on Sunday at brunch.
