Real runner feedback on course feel, crowd support, aid stations, and logistics (parking, hotels, restaurants).
Companion race to Bear Lake Utah where runners run the northern half of the lake mainly in Idaho. 50 staters can do this race on Friday then run Utah on Saturday. Super flst until final 10K when you can some hills on the eastern side of lake.
Limited support for this race which means water stops every 3 miles so you should bring a bottle to fill up. The wait post race for the shuttle can be a while but we soaked out legs in Bear lake to pass the time. Cold for the early (6:00 am ) start and still cool by the end. Super scenic race!
Garden city is lovely. Easy, free parking. I stayed in Logan (50 minutes away) which was fine by me.
