Describe your race day.

It was so much fun! I enjoyed watching all of my team mates cross the finish line the most but the scenery of Mt. Lemon is beautiful. The race was well organized and the announcer got all of our names right as we crossed the line:)
Did you PR?

My PR was 2.5 hours and I beat it by 25 minutes.
How would you describe the course?

The course if fast and fun!
Tell us about your training.

The only training advise I would give is do lots of leg strengthening exercises, the day after a 13.2 mile run down a mountain is quite painful. I will be doing that for my next one.
What advice would you give future runners?

Go have fun!
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

We volunteered at packet pick up which we all enjoyed. I think it really helped the new runners build their confidence for the race. All of the other racers were super nice and encouraging. We came down from Phoenix.
