Went to meet Heather on her last 9 miles of the Red Mountain 50k, and ran her in. It was a BEAUTIFUL course. One of the best I've seen! And the weather couldn't have been more perfect, partly cloudy and cool. We both thought the race was run VERY well. The volunteers really gave everyone personal attention and all the aid stations were well stocked. Heather got lots of cool loot in her runner bag too. I talked to the race director a bit and he said next year they are going to add a 1/2 marathon or shorter race along with the 50k. Heather did GREAT! She had a strong finish, I was so proud of her! |
