Beautiful (and plentiful) hills

This is a small, no-frills race. 200 marathoners. LOTS of big hills to train for. Roads are open to traffic; most cars were respectful. Lots of volunteers making sure nobody goes off-course. Wooden medals from re-purposed barnwood. Sweet AG awards carved from wood too.
