Conquering the Revel Reno Tahoe Downhill Marathon

Gysel Parajon shared her experience of running the Revel Reno Tahoe Marathon after her plans to run a local 50K fell through due to sell-out. Tapering for two weeks, she found the downhill marathon challenging yet rewarding. She enjoyed dinner with fellow runners before the race and appreciated the camaraderie during the event.
