  2. Describe your race day.

    It’s an early day with the commute from Portland. But I like that. Keep the time. Race went well. First half was great. Second half a little more challenging and a lot of traffic. Got a BQ time!

  3. Did you PR?

    No. But I was happy with my time. It’s a fast course that lived up to it’s billing.

  4. How would you describe the course?

    First half- great downhill, beautiful scenery, near perfect.
    Second half- nice downhill, perhaps too much traffic???

  5. Tell us about your training.

    Went well. Did some downhill training on trail, which helped.

  6. What advice would you give future runners?

    At least some downhill training.

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

    Stayed until Monday in downtown. Had a great time!

    In general, great BQ/PR race! Can’t ask for much more. Just wish there was some way to divert the traffic, or the course, over roughly the second half. Those loud, big trucks seem like they pass real close. Thanks for a very well organized, fun race!
