Describe your race day.

I thought the exacution of the race was excellent. For a race that's only a few years old I saw no kinks from my point of view.
Did you PR?

Sure, it was my first full marathon.
How would you describe the course?

Very steep! Hard on my knees but beautiful. Overall I liked it.
Tell us about your training.

Not long enough. Could of used about to more months of training. Signed up in late August after not running all summer after my last half marathon in May.
What advice would you give future runners?

Prepare for 26.2 miles downhill, so points steep.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Drank a beer. I recommend in the future you prepare more food for slower runner. Barely any food left when I finished and no food left when brother finished about 20 minutes behind me. Perhaps limit people to only one or two servings like beer tokens.
