who knew the desert was sooo beautiful
my FB post of this run started with 'who knew there were 50 shades of beauty in the desert?' as this race was indeed beautiful - out and back...did my # 205th marathon here just cuz it was DV! in addition to the beauty of the rum, the organization - starting right out side the front door of the resort, great aide stations, crew on bicycles to help with questions - I might go back from Orlando - just to enjoy the opening comments from the RD who WON the Escape from Alcatraz tri 3x - and has plenty of memorable one liners and then, asks everyone to sing America the Beautiful ...and everyone did! it was a very special moment and almost makes it hard to start a race at 6am with cheerful tears in your eyes...WELLLL done...put this one on your list!
