4/5 Stars
The majority of the race in the canyon was amazing and I felt wonderful, after exiting the canyon though I felt that the course had more to be desired, having that hill at mile 24 was THE WORST especially after the multiple mile flat section, if there was anyway to do that hill before a detour that would have saved my legs and multiple others a ton!
This was my first marathon so I did PR
Very difficult.

Trained on hills 3x a week, but unfortunately did not run further than 10 miles before the marathon...my bad
Train, train, train for hills and condition your legs! Being warm clothes for the start so you don't freeze to death. Wear shoes 1/2 size larger than you normally wear to save room for your toes on a predominantly downhill course
We live here, so we went home and toak a nice long bath
5/5 Stars
The course was spectacular and scenic. The staff and volunteers were very supportive and well organized!
Yes! By 13 minutes of my former PR at a NYC race. Did not do the marathon or aim for qualifying.
Gorgeous colors and fast race with the downhill.
Great day! Beautiful scenery and good company. What more can you ask for?
No but I cut 24 minutes off my time from last years race
Beautifully brutal
Not nearly enough
Enjoy yourselves and run your own race
Went to dinner the night before with my race sisters at Hoppers. Great food. I drove in from north Ogden but got a local hotel Friday night.
Fabulous organized race. The only thing that sucked was taking 40 minutes to get out of the parking lot. We could have used police there directing traffic.
Great volunteers. Thanks for making the race shirts a bigger fit this year.
It was perfect! Weather and surroundings were unreal!
Yes by 51 minutes!
Great.. Except for the 4 mile circuit in the middle. That was kind of mind numbing.
No training.
Run downhill:)
Same things I always do at my house...
Always a fantastic race!! My favorite and always so organized.
Yes!!! I ran this race last year and my time was 2:40 (2015) this year my time was 2:10!!! Major PR....whoot
Gorgeous
I didn't get as much traning in as I would have liked
Run hills
Audra Forbes loved the Big Cottonwood Revel
Great race! Plenty of aid stations, adequately staffed and really organized.
Yah. By 22 minutes. 4:14 was the previous PR, today was 3:52. No Boston this year, but next year I will try again.
Beautiful. Leaves changing, sun rising over the peaks. Absolutely stunning. Elevation made the uphill at Brighton pretty rough, but otherwise not a problem.
Standard marathon training, but I strength train 5 days a week. That is huge with the downhill.
Do it! Bring warm stuff at the start.
Amazing
No but I qualified for Boston!!!
Beautiful, major pounding on the legs but worth it!!
Trail running
Train downhill
Dinner, shopping
One of my favorite races ever!!!
Would recommend to all my running friends
Terrific from start to finish
Yes,
Fastest course I have ever run
80+ miles a week. Where shoes with heels
Sign up
Drinking smoking golfand gambling
Incredibly awesome! So well organized. Appreciate the use of technology by Revel, it's very innovative and works well. Definitely running next year!!!
Yes, PR'd by 10 minutes!!!
Awesome, but the wasatch Blvd out and back is tough.
I trained in the area, never in the canyon because I was worried about safety. Ran hilly courses in CWH where I live.
Be prepared for hot and cold!! Have fun and look around, such beautiful views!!!
I live here! I was really impressed with how well the city coordinated and felt like they really helped Revel make the race great!
