My Hood to Coast Relay Experience was amazing! A bucket list race I highly recommend doing with a group of friends.

Here's the breakdown on the PROS & CONS.

PROS
--Mt.Hood Scenery at the start was AMAZING
--Volunteers were the best I've seen. (dealing with storms/early morning hours and still loud, cheerful and helpful)
--Course legs labeled as "moderate" or "hard" weren't very difficult at all in my opinion.
--Amazing Finisher's Medal

CONS:
--Weather was pretty crazy. It never was too cold or too warm, but the Wind and Rain were difficult at times. I ran through a storm though, so this isn't necessarily a "common occurrence" and the race doesn't control Mother Nature!
--Difficult to get into. (I had the opportunity to run with Team Nuun. Others had to register WAY in advance. So be ready as soon as registration opens!)

All in all, a great race that I would definitely run again. You can read more about my entire experience and see tons more photos HERE---> http://bit.ly/HTCwithNuunPt2
