Describe your race day.

Bus transportation to start of 1/2 was efficient and easy. Thanks for all the port-a-potties at the start line! Route was very pretty; weather was perfect.
Did you PR?

No, but I was happy with my time.
How would you describe the course?

Very pretty and just the right amount of up and down hills. Loved finishing on the palm-lined street.
Tell us about your training.

I should have done more hill training for this race.
What advice would you give future runners?

I would recommend this race, but one of the features I appreciated was that it was not super crowded. Can we keep it a secret?
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Had a good Italian dinner on Friday night.
Driving from Orange County to get to the expo on a Friday afternoon meant coming through lots of traffic, and I was disappointed at the small number of vendors at the expo. Other than that, the race was a very positive experience.
