Perfect fall day for a trail marathon redemption!
Easy directions, organized packet pickup and good communication.
Ample free parking close to the start / finish and clean indoor restrooms with running water.
Chip timing on a well marked and scenic course running through wooded areas and along the lake. Terrain was a nice mix of rocks, roots, grass and one long hot stretch of road! The leaves are starting to fall making the trail a little more treacherous - I tripped an handful of times before finally biffing it hard enough to knock my hat off of my head!
Aid stations were well spaced and nicely stocked and burritos ready at the finish for all runners!
All runners got a nice SS tee and finishers medal. Overall and 5 year age group awards are 3 deep.
This was my 2nd attempt at a trail marathon. This was a tough race for me. I worked really hard and am happy to report that I improved my time by one hour 16 minutes and placed 2nd in my Age Group!
I would definitely do this one again!
