Describe your race day.
Beautiful and fast!
-
Did you PR?
Yes. Did only the half but ran it in 1:39 which put me at a 7:39 pace.
-
How would you describe the course?
The downhill was subtle and made the course fast. Beautiful morning to run. It was really cold waiting to start so thank you for providing the gloves and Mylar blanket.
-
Tell us about your training.
I run with the Boston Bound group with the LA LEGGERS. If I were to do it again I would incorporate more hill workouts.
-
What advice would you give future runners?
Dress warm for the morning wait. Ditch the clothes as you warm up. Find somewhere in Redlands to stay. It was very easy to get around, I was well informed and the race was well organized.
-
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?
I traveled from Los Angeles so going to dinner with other people running was all I did.
Thanks for a beautiful, well organized race. See you next year.
