  • Comments: This is a great race in a cool location. It can be hot, sunny and windy but that is what the desert is all about. I like the fact that this race is low-key and you can pick up your packet race morning. I have 2 gripes this year. The second run aid station ran out of water! That blows for back of the packers like me. And last year they had really cool soaked icy towels to put on your head at the finish. Not this year.

  • Comments: I loved this race. Thought it was really well put together. The venue was just gorgeous, and the routes were rocking. This is a race I would recommend for sure. I am certain that almost anyone would enjoy it, as it was also really scenic. It also helps that it had 1000 participants, and the atmosphere was electric.

  • Comments: With a short race like this, my swim ability is exposed...I had the fastest bike/run splits, but the swim put me too far behind to catch up. I had an excellent bike/run and I am very pleased with another Podium Finish!
