  2. Describe your race day.

    Organization was great. Loved the downhill course next to the river.

  3. Did you PR?

    Yes by almost 2 minutes.

  4. How would you describe the course?

    Winding downhill with the river in sight much of the race. Early uphill was good to not go out too fast, no extreme downhills.

  5. Tell us about your training.

    Very happy with training, focused on some downhill running to be ready.

  6. What advice would you give future runners?

    Do some downhill training, tie your shoes tight to be ready for all the downhills, dress warm for the wait in Evergreen!

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

    Bluegrass band was good but needed a sound system. Morrison Park was pretty but need more activities to encourage people to hang around.

    Was apprehensive signing up after the fiasco last year but the race was very well organized, loved the course and will probably be back next year. Only negative was so few spectators, would be nice to have more people cheering on the runners.
