  2. Describe your race day.

    I met a woman from Finland who was on vacation here in CA. And always nice to talk with similar people as we laugh about what masochists we are. Lol

  3. Did you PR?

    Yes. I did Canyon city half in 2016 and my time was 2:05. This year 2:04

  4. How would you describe the course?

    All down hill.

  5. Tell us about your training.

    I used Hal Higdon half marathon training guide. It worked well. But I started 12 weeks in and would recommend the whole 16 week schedule

  6. What advice would you give future runners?

    Eat pasta day before for dinner and a light breakfast with coffee and toast the day of the race. Lots of water. Dress in layers that you can take off as you warm up. I wore a long sleeve shirt with race shirt over and a light jacket. And long yoga pants. All must be of the fabric that wicks away sweat. And a nice hat. Take water and Gatorade often on course.

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

    Fontana CA
