Describe your race day.

This race was organized very well. Everything from the website, the communications we received before, the expo, and finally the day of the race were handled perfectly. I loved the swag we got and the thought put into it- the gloves, blanket, beenie and even safety pins for your bib were all in your race packet. Parking was easy and plentiful. Buses were comfortable. Course was beautiful and well marked. Volunteers were helpful and friendly. This is the first Revel race I've done and won't be the last, I hope they always keep the race small so we can enjoy the perks and the way things were!
Did you PR?

Yes, hard not to on the down hill. I PR'd my half by 3 mins.
How would you describe the course?

Beautiful. Fast.
Tell us about your training.

Followed Hal higdon intermediate half plan. I didn't train on the downhill as much as I should have.
What advice would you give future runners?

Don't hesitate to do this race, especially if you're going for a BQ!
