Comments:

Thought this would be an easy course as relatively flat, running in the dark for the first hour and thru rain and wind made it more challenging. Was not my best time but ended up 1st in AG and 39 overall. The rain did keep the temps down and sun came out about mile 8.
What would you do differently?:

Definitely need to get the pace better - should have been sub 8:00 minute miles this course

Event comments:

Really went for the vacation and to get a race in and had a great time. The people were fantastic and the vibe great. Would highly recommend as a destination run for a fun race atmosphere. Course was more challenging than I thought based on weather.
