Describe your race day.

Swag was good! Very well organized from packet pick up to bus rides to start and easy acces/ flow at the finish. The volunteers were amazing! They were friendly, helpful, and plentiful. Thank you for a nice event!
Did you PR?

No
How would you describe the course?

Beautiful! Grade for the half wasn't bad.
Tell us about your training.

Didn't train but I always try to stay in half fitness.
What advice would you give future runners?

Take advantage of the easy "drop bag" at the start. Go up comfortably dressed and peel before the start. And cell phones will not work in the moutains.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

If you have time, go on the hike to the Bridge to Nowhere, not so much to see the bridge, although it's good motivation, but for the beautiful hike/ trail run. You may not want to do it the day before the race but it can be run/ hiked in less than three hours. We traveled from San Diego.
