When I first heard of this race, I had never run a marathon before. The opportunity to run on an open road surrounded by some of the best scenery in the U.S. and in Montana of all places was enough to make me pursue this dream. It took two years to get there, but there I was right next to Black Butte on the morning of July 22, 2017 ready to get this epic run under way. And what a run it was!
While it was easily the toughest race I’ve ever undertook, it went by very quick. The scenery pulls you forward and you just keep wondering what’s over the next hill. Mile 23 was possibly the hardest mile I’ve ever faced in my life. I cursed it at the time, but hours later I found myself contemplating coming back next year. If you get motion sickness like me, the bus ride was the worst part about this race.
Highly recommend this race. The race staff is so friendly and down to earth. I know for sure I’ll be back. Next time, running two marathons.
