👏 Racer Experience
It was the second most beautiful course I’ve ever run, the first being the Yorkshireman in the UK, so hard to compete with. Packet pickup was seamless, the volunteers were kind, enthusiastic, friendly and helpful. The course was well marked, and the perfect kind of challenge.
- Porta-Potties: Plenty available along the course
- Swag: Cute T-Shirts and great blankets as gifts
- Overall Experience: "Well done! I can’t wait to run it (hiking those hills) again." — H. Kelly
