    2. Describe your race day.

      Early morning but the event was well organized and well ran. Buses where waiting and staff gave good instructions, after a cold wait the race started and was amazing. Nice views and extremely fast, PR by10 minutes. Looking forward to next year but will do a little more downhill training, my hips are sore but a small price to pay for my first sub 2 half.

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes, by 10 minutes.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Fast!

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I've ran several half's but am currently training slow long runs for a full. I felt unprepared for a fast race but still PR'd.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Train for downhills and keep an eye on the weather, even with sweatpants and a sweatshirt it was cold waiting for the start. Perfect weather for running though.

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

      I live here so nothing too different from my normal routine.

    2. Describe your race day.

      It was wonderful. This was my first time doing Revel Mt. Charleston. The race was well organized.
      I had a lot of fun and got to me some wonderful fellow runners.
      The volunteers were fantastic.

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes I did. I wanted to get a sub 2 hours but that did not happen. I got cramps in my legs at mile 12. I did manage to get 2:01:31.22. My last half marathon was at Lake Powell on 10/15/16. This was given by Vacation Races. My time was 2:10:41. I was please with my PR. Got to work on the cramps though.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      The course was good. This was my first time running a mostly down hill race.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I came up to Mt. Charleston on two occasions to test the down hill. I was told not to run to much down hill because of the wear and tear on the legs. My training could have been better. I need to do a better job to avoid getting cramps. My pacing needs some adjustment also.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Start trying early.

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

      Took photos. Talked a lot to fellow runners. Checked out the vendors.

    2. Describe your race day.

      I had a great day. The race seems to be a little long which isn't a huge deal to me but it did surprise me so I missed my best case scenario goal by 18 seconds.

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes I had a PR by 9 minutes and a BQ by about 50 minutes.

    4. How would you describe the course?

      The course was good. I wouldn't call it scenic except I live in and love the desert. It is a much nicer, more casual downhill grade than Big Cottonwood.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I train super hard, race results are secondary to me. I ran a peak of 90 miles and did 1160 miles in my 15 weeks of training.

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Enjoy the run, don't get too hung up on results.

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

      I didn't... We got in to town Friday night and left 2 hours after finishing.

      I walked to the gate of the runners area and stood next to the girl at the gate while I hugged my wife. I was then told I could NOT re-enter! This is an absolute crock of crap especially since she could see me within 4 feet of the gate. Also, get some freaking chocolate milk. It is the only thing I want after a race. I can't eat solid food without being ill and I NEED the recovery carbs. I wound up going to Walmart to buy my own. In my opinion no chocolate milk is a deal breaker!

    2. Describe your race day.

      The day was wonderful. The course was great ( although I hated the uphill at 24). The organization was as good as it gets and the volunteers were always prepared and ready as you approached. Great race. Also the coach plan was well worthwhile. Paul put together a plan that worked!

    3. Did you PR?

      No but my PR in a marathon was 35 years ago

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Fast. Hard on the legs but all marathons are.

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I have my own coach but also used Revel. Paul was great

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      Run this race. Stay at the lodge cabins at the start.

      Staying on the strip and going to a spa

    2. Describe your race day.

      Truly steady down hill....

    3. Did you PR?

      Yes I PRd!!!
      No not where I need to be for Boston but I'll be back next year !

    4. How would you describe the course?

      Steady downhill course .... should PR here no problem!

    5. Tell us about your training.

      I focused on long runs on Saturday or Sunday... and shorter run during the week , hill work , speed work are part of my short run training ... and finally balance training with the gym , swimming ect...

    6. What advice would you give future runners?

      This one is all downhill , you need to have some training that gets your body adjusted... clothes are personal , it is cold at the start on this race , but warms up significantly as you hit mile 5/6...

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

      This is Vegas!!! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas !

      I would only challenge one thing... more water stations as you get into higher mileage ... anything after 19 miles may require more then the standard ... outside of that loved it ! Really good job !!!!!
