This was my third marathon and my second on this course, and I will be running it every year for as long as I am able. This course is beautiful for the entirety of the run and Missoula comes out in support of this race in a truly impressive way for a town this size. The early morning start means that even slower runners like myself can still finish before it gets too hot, and even when it DOES start to warm up, on almost every block residents have set up sprinklers and hoses to run through.
