This is a relatively small, boutiquey race which I really enjoy. The coastal scenes along Oregon’s coast during this race were absolutely gorgeous. The first mile or two is up a gravel road, fairly steep but in a beautiful forest with some view of the coast. Downhill steeply back to sea-level and some really, really pretty scenery. Around mile 10 or 11, there’s a 1,200-foot climb up a road. Incline is a monster BUT I use run-walk-run and it really wasn’t too bad. At the peak, you then descend 1,200 feet back to sea-level and gravity can really pick up your pace on that decline!! Finish at the beach and have a great meal some of the really good restaurants in Pacific City. If you only want Oregon once for your 50 states (as did I), I highly recommend this one!!! You will NOT P.R., but heck, the scenery makes it totally worth it!!!!
