Describe your race day.
I finished!
-
Did you PR?
I did! I had never run a half marathon before so anything would have been a PR. My goal was to make it in under 2 hours and I came in at about 1:47, so I was happy!
-
How would you describe the course?
The half marathon course was nice. Very scenic, mostly downhill, but not at too steep of a decline.
-
Tell us about your training.
Mostly was just 3-5 mile runs. I wanted to do some longer ones, but had trouble finding the time.
-
What advice would you give future runners?
Better training.
-
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?
I hung out at the end of the race for awhile with my family, who came to watch me finish. That was fun. I live in Oregon City/Estacada area, so I did not travel very far for the race.
Overall the race was a good experience! I really like the fact that so much is included in the price of the race (shirt, hat, gloves, mylar blanket, food, treats and photos).
