This is the perfect small town "racecation" destination. No matter what race distance you choose, you are going to be treated to jaw dropping scenery to get you through.

The highs:
free shuttle to race
epic scenery
easy packet pickup
challenging course
late start times (9am!)

the lows:
very hilly
non race-specific medal

In my opinion, the highs far outweigh the lows. I will definitely come back and run a longer distance next time. It's the perfect destination to build a long weekend getaway. It's totally unique and peaceful with plenty of nearby activities to keep you entertained.
