5/5 Stars

This is a great race. I've run it all four years and the support has been fantastic. Lots of water, gels and sports drink and seemingly right around the next corner right where they need to be. Nicely done.

Not this year but I did in 2015 - my only sub 4:00 hour marathon.

Beautiful. Very fast first half with splendid vistas of Colorado. Lower section has great canyon views.

I run a marathon a month so I don't have to train.

Run it.

Slept.

Best half marathon I have ever run!!! You guys did an amazing job! Enough bathrooms and even on the course. I loved how the road was closed off to us runners! I felt extremely safe! The scenery was BEAUTIFUL!!! I was one that my 1st experience was NO busses and you all did a great job making it up to us runners! I will certainly be back every year!!

YES!!!

BEAUTIFUL!

I love running half marathons, they are my favorite and so I will certainly be back !!!!

Hydrate! Hydrate, hydrate!! is my #1 advice to all runners

After the race I had breakfast at TNT country kitchen. Morrison is my little piece of heaven, I LOVE IT there!

I was beautiful course with plenty of water at all the aide stations. My only comment would be to have more porto potties at the stations as the lines were pretty long and think people trying to PR were complaining about that.

I did not PR.

The scenery was beautiful, the downhill grades where not too steep and I live in Colorado so the elevation was fine.

Lots of downhill running as well as trails and road running. I would tell people to train for downhill that's hard on the joints and quads.

Go slower in the uphill portions and make up time in the downhill portions.

This was my first half marathon ever. Whatever I avhieved was a PR. I was pleased with my timing as I did much better than I expected.

Beautiful, serene.

Get into the habit of running long diastances i.e. greayer than 10k. Learn to pace yourself because only you understand your body perfectly.

Great job to everybody...smooth communication, great atmosphere on the course, and awesome end-of-the-race atmosphere...well done

it's my first half

hard to prep for...it's a different race with it all downhill, but I loved it. Great views, but I wish I would have trained more for downhill running

I didn't train...decided to run on Saturday and really appreciated you getting me into the race!

train specifically for downhill running...

loved the 'reboot' area...

5/5 Stars

Great organization and volunteer support - I like that they stayed to schedule

No, but ran better than I had in the last two years

Beautiful but challenging course

Normal, I did not do any downhill training

Do some downhill training and running at higher altitude

Went to the beer area after the race - would have been nice if the space was a little larger

This years race made up for the problematic event two years ago where I didn't even get to see the starting line because of problems with having sufficient buses to get the participants to the starting line. This years race was the best run race I have ever participated in and I have been in more than a hundred, great job!!

No, I am thirty years older than I was when I got my PR. However, I just missed the qualifying time I needed to enter the Pikes Peak Ascent by 100 seconds.

Beautiful and tranquil.

Not enough running road time, I tried to do mostly bike trainer time to get my heart rate up and to train my legs to have a faster turnover with a shorter stride. It worked.

3/5 Stars

Parking was horrendous. the lot was unavailable before the race and the Bandemere employees knew nothing about it. We came in a motorhome since hotels were unavailable. it was not well done.

No

Very pretty. Lot's of ups and downs

Trained in multiple states for many races. trained in the mountains for this one

Don't travel here. It is OK for locals but facilities for travelers is lacking

Drove around in circles, checked to see if anyone would show at the lot. found a noisy dusty place that kept us awake all night

5/5 Stars

It was perfect!

I accomplished my first marathon and did it under the 13 min miles so I was extremely happy!!!

Beautiful and hard but I'm glad I did it

I did a Nike training app and I feel it prepared me well

Be hydrated and at every station get a drink!

Nothing after I was to tired but it's beautiful!
