"We loved the race. We have a group of 12 that comes down from Sacramento every year (we’re on year 3). The best volunteers in the world. See you next year."

--Ryan Rauzon

"Very impressed with the organization, energy demonstrated by the military and the race itself. My father was stationed at Pendleton, Vietnam vet, and passed away 3 years ago this past memorial day and it was an honor to run a race in his name. Thank you for such a great experience. Will be back next year."

--Steve Nauck
