    The course was supposed to be downhill then flat. It was a very sharp downhill (4000 feet of drop in the first 15 miles!) and then we had a little hill at 16, which was hard for a lot of us, and then the last 5 miles were up and down in town, into and out of tunnels. That would have been much nicer to just stay flat and let us finish out our 5 miles. Most of the women around me all had the same BQ goals, and we all suffered and lost it together in those final ups and downs. It was kind of sad.
    The course was BEAUTIFUL and the weather was nice (for a Floridian) and the tank top and swag was fantastic. The after party at the brewery was fun and the volunteers were AMAZING, so they did a LOT right! Being a company from outside the area, they may not have realized how drastic the last few miles were for us. Also, it was nearly 26.8 miles, but that happens sometimes.
