Normally I have loved Ragnar races, but this was one of my least favorites because of organizational issues.

The scenery is awesome. But for some reason, several of the planned exchange points did not have capacity for all of the runners' vans and one of the sites that ran out of room was an overnight site for Van 2. The lot was full at the planned exchange point so we were redirected to another lot that had no inside areas to rest and no restrooms.

Aside from the logistical issues, the course scenery was amazing. I ran the Ragnar Leg over Deception Pass and it was definitely worth the extra effort! I loved the actual running part of this race.

I would recommend this race but would suggest that runners be very flexible as far as where they can rest and plan for several hours extra after the race if you plan to take the ferry back across to Seattle afterward.
