The temps are always chilly, but the course was in superb condition this year and allowed for some solid performances. It's always beautiful at Seeley Lake, rain, snow or shine. MORE

This was a big PR in my third marathon attempt and on my beautiful home course. It doesn’t get much better than that and gave me a big boost of confidence for the Chicago Marathon the following fall.

This race features about 4,000 feet of elevation game, so it's no picnic, but the scenery and some of the best trails in Montana make it all worthwhile. MORE

This is a very demanding course, but boy is it fun. I wouldn't miss this race for anything, but I wouldn't mind skipping the hill right at the start. Ouch! MORE

Coming back from hip surgery, I was pleased with this race. It wasn’t as fast as I would have liked, but I regained some confidence and had a great time running with three training partners.

Not much I like better than supporting out local land trust, and to do it by running this race is fantastic. I will be back for years to come. MORE

I didn’t run they time I had hoped for, but I still left the race satisfied and eager to do it again in 2013. The 10K course features a moderate hill at 3 miles that beat me up.
