The trail was a little bit tight at some parts when some runners were turning around and others were still making their way to the half point mark. During the last mile, I could hear the host saying people’s names as they finished and that kept me going to the end, hearing the after-party celebrations. It was a very welcoming environment for someone who doesn’t do races very often. I really enjoyed getting an included meal (and a concert from Kyle Richard!) afterward, it made me feel VIP. Overall I’d do it again… with more training.

This course was beautiful from start to finish. Fairly intense trek up to peak as it is a ski resort. Views were incredible it was hard not to stop to take pictures. The race directors from “Negative Split” are always exceptional and swag was high quality. I will return next year for sure.
Beautiful and brutal trail run!

This race is chalked full of challenging terrain and breathtaking scenery! I would say this 25k is one that will make you earn those beautiful views at the top of each summit!
Overall there were aid stations well stocked along the way and the volunteers and staff were all very friendly and helpful!
Fun race, rewarding views, LONG inclines

This is a legit mountain run. I think they set up the race to be merciful at times by traversing up the side, and being unforgiving other times with 2 miles of steep grade. I think the views and scenery were worth it though. Negative Split always puts on good races. The aid stations had whatever you needed for a non-marathon distance, and I appreciate the Gatorades and G-zero. Did I mention the free beer and brat after? I appreciated that. I hope they do that after more of the races in the future – runners need significant protein after racing so the brat was a valuable option. Thanks Neg Split!
