"I've said it once and I'll say it again, Missoula is worth the trip! A beautiful, flat course with all the friendliness you can stand. I heard one lady behind me complain about the water at an aid station not being cold enough and as I silently wished her ill-will, the girls at the very remote station apologized profusely. And I guess that sums it all up, it is not a "big city" race but it makes up for it in charm, scenery and good ol' Montana hospitality. And free beer!! Who would've thought beer would taste so wonderful at 8 a.m.? Register now!"

"Missoula is a beautiful and friendly town to visit and run in. This race is new but will definitely continue to grow every year. Caras Park is the perfect place for registration and post-race activities, in the heart of downtown Missoula on the river. Speaking of which, nothing more beautiful than running along the Clark Fork River. Early start but plenty of shuttle buses to get you to the starting line on time."
