  2. Describe your race day.

    Good race with plenty of support. Fast course! Nice fellow runners :)

  3. Did you PR?

    No. 12 seconds off PR set 10 years ago.

  4. How would you describe the course?

    Nice scenery and very fast! Very manageable downhill grade as long as you train for it. Elevation none factor.

  5. Tell us about your training.

    I did practice run on course last week. I should have done 4-5 more! Get plenty of hill training before doing this race !

  6. What advice would you give future runners?

    I was local so no travel. However come in 3-4 days early. There is never ending things to do here besides the Strip. Vaseline your feet especially the toes before you race as your toes will jam into front of your shoes and cause blisters unless you do. This will happen even if you don't normally blister because of the downhill grade. Weather was good and is usually even better this time of the year.

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

    I am local but you can do almost anything here. Hike, bike, climb, trail run, sight see, dance, party, and go to a Show! Just millions of things to do :)
