The views are good as you run near the Weiser river and have broad, sweeping views of the area and distant mountains.
The path/trail was rougher than I anticipated with rough, loose gravel and uneven areas. I’d suggest wearing sturdy road shoes or trail shoes.
The course is mostly very gentle downhill.

Well it would have been easy if I had trained. This is a fairly flat course on an old railroad bed. It follows the Weiser River. Normally April is a great time to run this course but spring is a little late along the Weiser this year. This race has great volunteers along the course. And because there is a relay going on at the same time you have a large cheering section at the aid station.

The medal is kind of cool , it’s a railroad spike. Great aid stations. Easy flat run on an old railroad bed. Worse part of this run is the cloud burst that happen in the last 6 miles. At least it wasn’t to hot.
