Well done race, good organizers, easy to find. Rolling hills, no steep grades of any type, you will enjoy it. A little confusing at times. If you want a shirt, sign up early. All trail, no road, rocks and gravel. A very flat area north of Phoenix.

Can’t beat this one. All of nature is on display, Yellow in full display. Fall is here. Don’t miss this one. Great job by the Host, a family of runners. The course is paved, dirt and 90% trail. A good elevation gain, you have two river crossings, and lots of trees and hills. But a very good course. Race start was 34 degrees and around 82+- at the finish. Good swag, hat, shirt, medal. The food as always is perfect.

A well done race. Lots of very good runners, Equal amounts of Women and Men. A good 70 % are fast. Great Weather, very cute little town. All good with this one, just one improvement, no medals. So if they made a really cool medal this would be a 5 star for sure. Folks come from everyplace to run this. The first mile is congested, the last up mile is tough. This was my 4th or 5th time.

Crazy hard race. Lot of hills, 17,800 ft. elevation gain throughout the race. This one has been executed perfectly for my two years of running it. After race food is great, all aid stations well supplied. Take lots of water, folks were running out of water. Many water crossing, some mud, last year we had snow. This is a very hard and long race. So many hills. I am amazed I finished this.

Be aware there is little room for a miss-step. Clearly in this race, this race only, they are clearly more interested in the top 30, than the rest of the folks. So, run this race for fun but make sure your under the 4 hour mark. Such a great race series and this one race out of the series seams to fumble the ball. I believe the problem here is not with the organizers but with the city of Manitou Springs. They profiteer to the max , parking fees etc. This year they let cars into the parking as runners were still finishing. Totally uncalled for.

You follow the river and go through the valley. about 1500 people per race, 5 races. Great swag, you will love the race.

Very nice race. This one is a must do. Perfect temperatures, humid, cool, your in the forest the whole time, the canopy blocks the sun. You run on the paved old wagon road, the big trees are 45-70 ft. in circumference. 200 to 250 ft tall. Race is well done, results are right away. Directions are a little lacking so do your home work. This is back country Northern CA. Watch the small towns, they have speed traps and they love writing tickets.

FYI, I am now 71, I have done 130 Marathons, 120 half’s, , 30 Ultras. This race was my 13th time for running it, The course has changed at least 3 times I know of. The organization did a marvelous job at putting this together. Fantastic community support and turn out. Lots of bands/drums etc. Volunteers had great attitudes. If you run this, if you park in a garage, park close to the exit, read all the race guide, take a space blanket just in case, mornings are cool.This race can turn hot later in the race. The swag is great and lots of thought has been put into this race. You will enjoy this for sure. There all hills, several so plan for it.

Lights, colors, swag, lots of folks, maybe 20,000 in the 1/2, another 20,000 in the 10K, no one could tell us for sure. Music all the way, Well put together. One issue, their web site needs some work also the communication via emails is weak. If you get same day bib pick up, they charge $50.00 plus processing fee, $10.00 plus tax. $60.00 plus to pick up. The web site also does not say where to go. But the runners are great and the bands are great too.

Rolling hills course, nothing really steep. Good views, Lots of different races, Single track, muddy today, all ran well. If you go next year, the GPS is wrong, Apple phone will take you to the wrong spot, so search for the main gate. Buses this time to make it easier to get in and out. Never hod bad weather here out of 3 years running this course.

R & R did a great job, execution at every level. Start was good, well done, finish was also good. A very good course, out and back. Lots of bathrooms, so not problem there. Exit was a little tight because of all the people. 8500 1/2 marathoners. 5000 10K ers. Really a great crowd. Parking at my garage was free 201-South Ash Ave. for runners, they started charging later on. Exit out of town was easy and fast. Police presence was right on the money.

Haven’t got the results yet, 50K are still out. Nice folks, lots of spectators came out. Good public park. Good parking, lots of space. No issue, The lady runner 50K WON IT, broke the course record by 18 min. So hot she melted the rocks.

This race on an organization level has improved over last year. Busses and staff were perfect. The course is rather boring for me. Maybe for out of town folks it would be better. Finish area was perfect, well done, staff had it together for sure. The Medal was very plan Jane. We have so much here, Big horn sheep, mountain lions, Owls, hawks, bobcats and 16 mountain ranges that surround us. It looks to me that with a little effort a super cool medal could be made.

The Revelers is a very fine group, really. However, this race and I have done 9 of their races ranked way down the list. The buss pick up was a mess. The location for pick up, no signs, no people, nothing was there. The delegated people showed up very late. A parking attendant not associated with the race helped out. Runners were so mixed up. So the race started late. Also no bathrooms on the lot, also a big problem. A total mess. The course is a nice course, not the fastest Revelers but good. Not a lot of locals out. Aid stations are just water and electrolytes so bring your own snacks. Weather war great and finish was great and very well organized.

Beware of the trail markers. Here again the boos is not checking up on the worker bees. Many people got turned around, off course for 2-4 miles, wrong direction etc. These folks have issues with proper markings and directional s. I thought I was on course, another lady coming from opposite directions said she was back tracking.. Turned out she was right, we both go messed up for miles. Also have many other say the same thing. Aid stations are great, this particular race the swag was very nicely done. The mountain is challenging, most is flat.

First off the Navajo nation was fantastic. Over all a good race, very beautiful for sure. Cliffs, Rocks, Trees and ……sand. 150 runners only, drawing only. They do a fine job for sure.

This is a lap race, originally signed up for the 31K, timer was not nice. I requested to drop down because for me, lap races are very boring. He ( timer guy ),said he would not do it but I could drop out if I wanted. Not a nice guy. Band speakers were directed to the spectators and not the course??? Mostly flat course, one hill, the trail was nice. They practice no cups which is so totally worthless. No cup races are no cup to help the directors do less work and make more money, which is a lot of Aravaipa races. Food was good, aid stations good. But friendliness of the race folks and runners is like a 2 on a 1-10 scale.

This race course has changed a couple of times. It used to be called the Summer Round UP. The current course is very hard. 6 miles up hill and a turn around. 400 ran it this time. Crazy hard for flat-landers. Most runners come from mountain areas or high altitude. Last year I exploded on the course, this year I improved by 1 hours and 35 minutes. Most runners in this race are super good, in shape, young, and skinny. But all types run it. Leg 2 of the Garden to Peak challenge. ( Pikes Peak Marathon and Ascent ). Their Swag is a T-shirt, no medal, cups, mugs etc.

Food was good, they still don’t have cups, :(, Course is a nice one, music was good, They still give out really cheap glass ware as swag, it breaks very easily, or a wooden medal if they don’t run out.

Just not to friendly of Organizers. We did get a nice whiskey glass. Much better than the last 3 we received. They are most focused on making money first.

There are some great views in this race, recent storms put lots of water in the creeks, several creek crossing. Nice running area. Good aid stations, mostly OK marked trails but needed more markers out, at one fork in the trail, no markings, that caused a delay. Award pick up is still up in the air, or lacking information. This organization gives out very cheap glasses or wine glasses, so cheap they break easily. If they are going to do that, spend some money and get good ones we can use. I have spoke up on this but no one wants to hear that.

That part is sad that a few cry and the rest have to agree??? Swag was good, t-shirts are good, the medal was smaller but very nice. A bunch of us used the GPS on the site, took us to the wrong place, about 20 cars ended up wrong. 2nd Try we went right to the Church address, it was closed and Locked gate. So we ask around, the correct entry was a short distance 1 +- mile away. The actual address of the park or guard shack should be used. Overall, it all turned out well.

If you are a regular runner, you need to know, this organizer is OK at best. The swag gets worst. They seem to change from medals ( wooden ) to very cheap wine glass type the might have cost them 19 cents. I ask the organizer about this and he told me he did a “survey of his runners “, I never received a survey and I have done several of his runs. Runners are here for fun, the race, the location and the medal. 100 plus dollars, sometimes 200, or more and you can not put out a good swag????? Thats called profiteering. Also this race and two other of his races have issues with trail signage. The photo posted was sun rise on race morning.

There were several races ran on the same day, The web site had corrections so I am sure some folks did not get the change. Ref. time start. Most everything else has improve. However, their award was a very cheap wine glass that every runner I know hates. Totally worthless and breakable. My big issue with this organization is that they do not play the National Anthem. Not 100% sure but I have not heard it at several runs. They also are now running the Tucson Marathon. The National Anthem had better be played. Very sad these folks forget just what country they live in.

Just loved the race, on the horse shoe race, I would follow the river for 2-3 more miles and then turn to the finish. Loved the scenery, it was great, improve that if you can. Love trail running, so much more fun than street. Just returned from Chicago Marathon. This race beats that one 5 to 1. It was good but not grand. VR’s are just fine. Mostly, good folks. Who ever reads this, this “Trail Fest” is a must do. P.S. the medal is the 2nd best one I have received in 44 years and 150 races. The photo I posted is just the tip of the iceberg. That is Horse shoe bend from the top of the cliff, I diverted off the trail so to get the photo, no worries, your not running the edge. Safe as can be.

Fun race, some call this the tunnel race, ran on an old rail road track. Beautiful run, lots of green. Don’t say in the hotel at the pass. stay down at the bottom. This is a fast course, lots of room on the road.
