Lots of down grade, very fast course. Canyon race, lots of folks, got hot. A little disorganized at the start, they could have started the back up the hill and had all the smoothness you wanted. But, as always a fantastic race. Posting some pics, canyon views and one of the homes we passed.

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 is a flat course, super fast, lots of good folks, busses from Vegas AVA. if you wanted them. Around 500 runners this year. Race start was 71 degrees and 61 at the finish, small up hill at the turn around. 5 races, 55k, 26 miles, 13 mile, 10 K, 5k, youngest was 14, you need head lights, reflectors vest. This is a great Saturday night.

This one is a killer, only the really in shape people should do this, I run 30-40 races a year and I did badly. 8000 foot elevation gain, 3 mountains and 4 extra hills to climb, the whole race is done above 10,000 ft. I never thought I would get done. Crazy hard.

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.

Always a fun and great race with Mad Moose, Everything went well, good stations, good course, good people, well done race group. This is the most friendly organizers in all my races. Shoot out to the Salt Lake group and the lady form New York, ( one in the same ), good job out there. This is a very tough course. Not the hardest but a killer for sure. Cold morning and hot finish.

Bryce is amazing, this was my 3rd big race time and I have 2 other smaller Bryce. Lots and lots of hills, mostly single track, high altitude. Lots rocks, dirt, and steep inclines. Be ready folks. They did miss calculate the distance, my GPS said 35 miles not 31. The race is very well done, A++. Swag could be better, same medals and ribbons. They need to change that up.

We had about 50 in this race, maybe 150 with all 5 races. 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. Option hat or shirt. Local run for the most part, family spectators are there, good support. The attached photo was the sunset last night.

Race production, Only the finish was really well done. One other aid station was OK. The rest :(. The runners were good, not as friendly as most. The course was a good course, lots of hills, all single track. Lots of trees. Again, they failed to give medals, I am seriously thinking about moving on from this group. 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. Still can not get calls back or emails returned.

Good group of runners, Colorado Springs, Palmer Park. Palmer Park is a very big park. All Trail, well marked, lots of turns and lots of hills. One continuous single track, rocks, and views of the local area and Pikes peak mtn. range. This is a family ran organization, well done. Results are posted same day, good swag, The course is check the night before and the day of the race for proper flagging and nothing has removed the flags. Easy to find. Top notch production. All family members are also runners.

This was my 7th race with Revel, some changes I do not like, course was good, it was put together well, Medal was great, however, finish line was sad, food, drink-sad, they dropped the box lunch, they dropped the mud/insulated drinking cup, the retail was sad as I never carry credit cards in a race, worker enthusiasm was not there. So, in my view, on a scale of 1-10, old rating a 12, they have dropped to a 5 or less. Rather sad. Just focused on the money.

This one is a must do. I have ran this course or parts of this course 5 times, different distances. The slot canyons are amazing. This year we did not have as many, but that was a land ownership thing. But, no less amazing. This year we looped around the Horseshoe bend, also a must see sight. This year, lots of rain, mud, rocks, wind, cold but still I love it. The rain and mud slowed things down though.

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.

Much improved all the way around. Trail markings were perfect, aid stations were all well done and full, and a good selection. Still no National Anthem. 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.

First part is slow, some hills, the end is great, went through 4-6 old train tunnels. We run on the old train path. Great views from up there.

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.

Training is a must, and high altitude is 100% necessary. 95% trail, single track. Be ready. weather is all over the place so again, be ready. Miss the cut off time, miss the medal so get in shape.

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.

I have ran this race many times. I first ran this race in 1998 and did very well, over the years I have bettered the times and also ran slower. The trail, the start, the finish, the quality of the staff and their focus is really fantastic. Now that I am a lot older this proves to be an extreme challenge. Every aspect of this race is covered. The other runners come from around the Nation and the world. A challenge for everyone for sure. For sure the runners are really nice to exchange ideas and information.

Starts cool, nice views and will flatten out. You run the highway most of the race. Poorly put together and never has been a well done race. This year 2022 will be interesting. New owner from the Phoenix area, they historically give bad service and don’t return emails or calls. I have ran several of their run in the Phoenix area. They are an average organization. This is their first Tucson Marathon, it will be interesting how it goes. I am still waiting for both a call and an email to be returned from these new folks.

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.
