  • Comments: I loved it! My only complaints were the lefthand angle the entire time and the fact that they didn't tell us where the porta-potties were, leaving people to pee in the woods then round the corner to see a porta-potty. But it was beautiful, the the officials and the volunteers were friendly and seemed to have everything under control. The finisher's medal is hefty and beautiful. The windbreaker you get with entry is a quality item. And the course itself is indeed grand.
