Describe your race day.

4.5 I thought everything was perfect, except a couple of things. First when the marathon started, no one knew that it had, until people started running. I think it might of been the siren from the Police Truck that stated things, however no one really knew, so a stad confusing at that point. The hotels had no shuttles set up. Hoping that as things get bigger and they will, that something like that is set up. I'm one of the owners of Shu's Idaho Running Company here in Boise, know that I'm going to be talking you all up.......
Did you PR?

No, had a PW. however only because my knee locked up. That's "ALL ON MIKE!"
How would you describe the course?

Tough, with the altitude and the hills at the beginning made it rough, challenging, but really beautiful the whole way.
Tell us about your training.

Ran a couple 20 miler log run, just not enough down hills. Here in Boise we have a ski resort that is 16 miles up, made for a couple nice down hill training runs, just not enough.
What advice would you give future runners?

Run Down Hill! At least a couple 20 milers.
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

Didn't really have enough time, next time that will change. Traveled from Boise Idaho
