Youngstown Ultra Trail Classic Review

One of the most beautiful trails I have ever run! Truly took my breath away!
Good communication, easy directions, and ample free parking near the start / finish with a clear view of the final leg of the course.
Family friendly park with playground and plenty of spectator areas
Gun start / chip finish on a well marked mostly single track trail, challenging stairs, and stretches of fast road through Mill Creek Park.
Trail had a nice mix of super technical rocks and roots sprinkled with some very runable trails and 1400’ of elevation.
Trees, boulders, lakes, a waterfall, a working mill, and a covered bridge. Absolutely breathtaking!
Nice after party with chili / fajita nacho lunch 
SS collared tech shirt, running hat, and finishers sticker
Top 3 overall male / female finisher awards
