• Overall course based on my ability: Too hard


• Comments: The tech t-shirt rocks! The single aid station was put out there after most people had done at least 2 laps. The unmanned aid station consisted of 2 5gallon water jugs, a big ziplock bag of Hammer gels and two camping chairs. They were really good about replacing the water and gels though. The course was marked with ribbons and at night they put out glow sticks which worked well. They were pretty good about sending their own guys out to run and replace/add ribbons/glow sticks. Overall I think it's a good event, but it's also my first ultra, but it makes for a good first since logistics are easy (hopefully you can do 5.37miles without needing their aid station since you have your own at the starting line each time).

• Comments: This is a good race. Since it was a loop there wasnt really a need for aid station or volunteers. There was a jug of water and some gels halfway through the loop. The base camp aid station had a variety of foods and water/heed throughout the day such as bananas, watermelon, trail mix, doritos, peanut butter and jelly, some sort of bars, and I am sure many different things throughout the night that I did not experience.
