I had a wonderful experience running the 50 mile distance. The course is a great tour of the northern AZ landscape and landmarks, and seems like the best way to experience these iconic sights. It’s also a difficult course, mainly due to the extensive miles in the sand. But that’s what we signed up for in a desert ultra, so any complaining is ridiculous (though there was a lot of that, perhaps runners were unprepared?).

It was my first Vacation Races event. It was an extremely well run event with lots of support and amenities. It seems more like a road marathon event than the low-key trail ultras I usually run. Immediately afterwards, I started considering the other ultra events VR hosts, so they certainly impressed me with their event production and choice of beautiful courses.
