Describe your race day.

My four year old daughter and mom came with me from Nebraska, so they got to watch me finish, which was awesome! The course was so beautiful!!
Did you PR?

Yes! By 29 minutes
How would you describe the course?

I loved the scenery farther up the canyon most and the morning sunrise was beautiful! The elevation was great and grade was perfect -mostly downhill with a few flats allowed for a break here and there!
Tell us about your training.

I trained on flat ground at 1800 - 2000 feet. I ran about 15-20 miles per week.
What advice would you give future runners?

If you want a great first experience, a Run Revel race would be great for you!
What fun things did you do in the area before or after the race?

We came from Nebraska and spent a few days in Scottsdale before the race!
