  2. Describe your race day.

    This was my first half marathon and I was very excited. Everything was so smooth from start to finish. I was impressed by how organized everything was. Great job!

  3. Did you PR?

    I set a goal to complete in 2:20 and completed in 2:09. I am very pleased with my time and my experience.

  4. How would you describe the course?

    So pretty, I would run that course every day if I could.

  5. Tell us about your training.

    I did not read anything about training and never heard any horror stories. I knew I was prepared and just set out to go for a nice run on a beautiful day. It worked!
    Training advice, run regular routes with hills, get up to at least 8 mile runs and you will be able to do this downhill run with no problem.

  6. What advice would you give future runners?

    hydrate the days before the race.

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