Beautiful course

Full Review:

Small running field, great support on the course, beautiful views. A bit hilly, so probably tougher course to get a pr on. Nice Mexican food spread at the finish line.

Race Tips:

We stayed in a glamping tent on the resort property(where the finish line is). Was comfortable and convenient

Full Review:

Intimate race with spectacular views but not a place to look for a PR.

Race Tips:

Expect few crowds along the route and a bunch of hills.

Travel/Logistics Tips:

Best to get to Friday Harbor the day before the race.
