Great race atmosphere and unmatched scenery. No lie, the race is brutal in terms of difficulty, but the feeling of accomplishment and the views are well worth the effort.

Great race great course

This was a well-organized race with fantastic on-course support. It was really warm (72 degrees and sunny!) and I appreciated the abundant water stations, which usually isn't something I notice. The course has gorgeous views of the ocean outbound along Highway 101, and then you come back on the inner portion
