Describe your race day.

Very well organized from start to finished. They made sure to have plenty supplies(water, Gatorade, blankets,etc) at the start line. Music blasting to help the time pass away. The route coming down the hill was beyond beautiful.
Did you PR?

Missed my PR by only a few minutes.
How would you describe the course?

This course was so beautiful. Running between the walls of the canyon to viewing the water from atop of the bridges. Beautiful!!!!
Running down hill works best for me.
Tell us about your training.

Training should consist of hill runs. Although the course was mostly down hill, there were a couple of hills.
What advice would you give future runners?

It was cold at the top. So make sure you dress in layers and use the gloves and Mylar blanket they provide for you. If you use you phone for music note that there is no phone reception there. A lot of the course is on a slant.
