Describe your race day.

Great day. Chilly start, but otherwise great. Race was great, fast. Wonderful views coming down the mountain.
Did you PR?

Yes, I PR'd by 5 minutes to finally break 1.45 in the half! (Came in at 1.42.05)
How would you describe the course?

Half was a more gentle grade than I had anticipated.
Tell us about your training.

I didn't include much downhill training, and am paying for that still a few days later!
What advice would you give future runners?

Train on the downhill, make sure you recover correctly. My hotel didn't have baths, so no ice bath for me!
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Lots of eating! And outlet shopping.
