  2. Did you PR?

    Yes, my first BQ.

  3. How would you describe the course?

    This course was FAST. I think it is faster than the Canyon City course due to the constant downhill grade and absence of any major uphill sections. The second half of Canyon City can be treacherous.

  4. Tell us about your training.

    Train on downhills and build up quad strength at the gym

  5. What advice would you give future runners?

    Be prepared for the heat. We had perfect conditions this year but I imagine typical weather this time of year could be uncomfortable near the finish. Wear Hoka One One shoes to minimize impact of downhill on your knees.

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