Describe your race day.

Was my first half marathon at the age of 60. I really appreciated the organized transport and bag check-ins. Everyone there was very welcoming and helpful. Great energy from your volunteers and workers. Loved the goodies after the race, especially the donuts and pizza. I will sign up for another Revel run race soon!
Did you PR?

My first time doing a half marathon. There was definitely no worries that I had the time to finish one.
How would you describe the course?

I liked the course alot. Beautiful and breathtaking.
Tell us about your training.

I've trained through Fleet Feet Rancho Cucamonga. They have a beginning runners class called No Boundaries which is one of the best classes out there for couch to 5k and beyond goals.
What advice would you give future runners?

Don't let the weather intimadate you. Many layers helped me but the space blanket was appreciated.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

We had a great group from our running club: some old and some new. Making a team was great.
