Autumn Lytle · 2018
Autumn loved the scenery, clear markings and quiet, friendly atmosphere. Hills near the beginning and end were tough, with few spectators. Aid was well stocked but handoffs sometimes slow; dark parking access and the cold walk afterward were drawbacks. She nevertheless strongly recommended the small race.
