Expo
The day before the race you could go to the regal beagle “cabin” and pick up your packet. It was a cute little cabin with a toasty fire and food
Swag
Each participant got (50k)
-Long sleeve tech
– hammer nutrition gel
-hammer electrolyte tab
– hammer nutrition sponsored squish, reusable cup
– a hammer nutrition ad
I applaud them for giving a swag bag of 100% usable products. I used everything they gave me during the race.
Course
To anyone that says it’s FLat aNd fAsT are lying. I will note this was my first ultramarathon but I don’t consider 900 ft of elevation gain “FLat”. Besides that it’s definitely not an easy course, lots of hills. I was focused on running so the scenery wasn’t what I was paying attention to but it was nice, but nothing that took my breath away. In the end I actually began to like the course
Aid stations
There were two of them. The start/finish line area and at the regal beagle (same place you picked up your packet). I know the course was cut down to a five mile loop from a 7 mile loop but apprently there use to only be one aid station. I’m so thankful for that second one because mentally it gave me a goal, ecspecally on the last lap. They were fully stocked with everything you’d need with amazing volunteers. I really encourage them to keep both aid stations.
The people
Amazing volunteers and a very well put together race. As a #CertifiedSnail I predicted to come in (before the knowing of the hills) 8 (cutoff) to 815. Something I notice at races is for whatever reason they’ll start packing up wayyy before the cutoff and it kills me inside. This race gets my badge of snail certification because when I somehow managed to come in at 7:42:20 everything was still there and the other aid station still had everything as I was coming around on my last lap. I thanked them many times for not leaving out the back of the pack, you’ll have a high prestige in the running community if you are #SnailCertified.
Overall
Although I was extremely unprepared for what was to come I could not ask for a better first ultramarathon experience. The swag bag was the best I ever received for I used it all for the race and created no waste. A challenging course that won’t exactly kill you with ok scenery. Amazing volunteers and race directors that respect the back of the pack.
TL;DR
A great, challenging, first ultramarathon that is back of the pack friendly. Two amazing aid stations with amazing volunteers. 10/10 would recommend
