  2. Describe your race day.

    Wow. From pre-race emails, to parking and CHARTERED buses, this race was top notch and seamless. As marathoners we have enough to stress about, and logistics shouldn't be one of them. Revel was impeccable and I will certainly be back next year.

  3. Did you PR?

    I certainly did! Prior to Revel my only marathons have been during Ironman races and the Los Angeles Marathon. Before revel my PR was 3:25, and today I ran 3:11. I did not qualify for Boston but I was on pace until 19.5 miles. If not for my calf cramps, I would be booing a flight.

  4. How would you describe the course?

    Beautiful, challenging (downhill is not as easy as one might imagine), and well stocked with fruit, electrolytes, and food.

  5. Tell us about your training.

    I did a 16 week training block and ran the course twice; a 16 mile from the top and 21 miles beginning from mile 5.

  6. What advice would you give future runners?

    Practice, practice, practice.

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

    Nothing because i'm local.
