I really like this race. It’s got a great local family feel to it (my kiddos were able to cheer me on) and the lake setting is really cool. I saw the mountains while running on the turns and throughout the course and was able to take it in.
Rain or shine, I’ll keep coming back. Such a great event company, race-director and thought out setup.

A great race I've done a few times now

This was my 2nd year running and it was a challenge. The weather was super gnarly but I still had a great time. The course was well marked (just like in years past) and I loved the post race pancake breakfast.
These guys always put on good events (I’ve raced some others) and I am looking forward to signing up for next year.
Great race overall despite the weather.

Honestly this was a really cool race. This was my first year doing it and even though the weather was HORRIBLE with rain, the event still went well. I know race directors can’t control the weather.
I enjoyed all the twists and turns on the course and liked the post race food. I’d definitely race this again especially hoping for better spring weather.
Weird Course but pancakes were good
Very strange course.. lots of out and backs and random u-turns. The 10k runners ended up Stuck behind slower 1/2 marathon runners on narrow trails. Super confusing. Good swag though … MORE

I was so excited for the race, the swag was so cool! That’s where the above and beyond stopped. The course was…. Quirky at best, a confusing logistical nightmare at worst. And it did err on worst. I should have known what I was in for when, upon arrival, the half marathoners were running a loop through the parking lot as part of the course and the RD have a pre race “course guide” to the 10k. I had a sinking feeling then that the course was going to be either overly complicated, without good signage, or both. It was both, with zero mile markers save around mile 5.3 where I should have turned but I saw a “mile 1” marker. This is where things went awry as there was no other signage or support and many went the wrong way. We finished about .05 short but when we went to tell the RD about the logistical issue so he could get people out there to direct, he argued with us. There were quite a few who had this error. I placed third in female finishers overall but left as I felt I didn’t deserve this due to the wrong finish. I likely won’t be doing this again, quite disappointing.
Great race at a pretty venue!

This race was absolutely great. The attention to detail, course signage, athlete swag and especially post race food and festivities were so well executed.
The race director communicated well and all the staff and volunteers made the whole morning run smooth
I loved running along the lake, being able.to see the mountains and passing spots on the course more than once. It gave my family a chance to cheer for me in multiple locations.
I’m signed up for this year and am looking forward to it. This is a great local race!
Great race on a beautiful course!

This was a great local race. The venue had a ton of parking that was really close to the start. The race course was well marked and the event organizers really cared about athletes and spectators having a great morning. The mountain views and accomodations nearby make this really out of towner friendly too. I made new friends at the inaugural event that were from Wyoming!
