Once you get going, the race is was awesome. Great crowd presence, but crazy low energy. Like they would only cheer for their person with the exception of the Lulu Lemon group. They were crushing it. The start line was a total cluster. They only corrals marked were A-D…the rest of us…good luck figuring out where to go. Expo was great, course was fine, but definitely some opportunities for improvement with the start and finish.

This race is about more than running and it hit me in the feels more than once. Hearing about cancer survivors that were running that day gave me chills. Then so see pictures of children during treatment and after made my eyes water. I enjoyed the race mostly for the cause 🙂 Overall, this should be done by all runners. The only gripe I have is the shirt is too short. I like the design, but length seemed off.

I am not and never will be a competitive runner, so I look for fun races with great support and this one marks all the boxes. There was great support along the entire course and great energy from the crowd from start to finish. I would definitely recommend this race. The only thing I would like to see is a bigger medal. I’m all about the bling haha
Queen Bee Half Marathon 🏆
Fun Race - Run it as such

This race was very enjoyable. I’m on a mission to complete a half in every state and I’m glad this marked off Ohio for me. I was personally a little disappointed of my time and that was because of me having to run around groups of walkers. So I actually ran 13.25 miles and therefor missed out on my PR. However, the race was amazing. Highly recommend.

This was an awesome race as I’m sure all IronMan series events probably are. The swim was cold for me because my wetsuit broke before the race on race morning…no other option but to swim without it. The bike section was very hilly! Did my best to go easy when it was hard and to go hard when it was easy. The run was fine and there’s no feeling like crossing a finish line haha

This was an enjoyable race. It had enough participants that there was camaraderie throughout, but not so many that it was difficult to maneuver. The course was very beautiful in parts and I took some pics along the path. It was very hilly though…remember what goes up, must come down. Just get to the tops of the hills and you’re golden.

The packet pickup process was super smooth. The expo was crowded with too many booths, but some good, quality booths so I’m glad they were there. There were so many port-a-potties so there were very short lines. Crowd support along the course was hit and miss. Overall a fun race that I would recommend. Nothing to complain about!

The music to begin and end was on point. Crowd support throughout was pretty good too. One of the churches even had run through communion available. Didn’t have a gel/goo station but other than that the on course support was great. This would be a race that I’d do again.

This race had a few rolling hills, but was not too difficult. It was a beautiful course with breathtaking views. It’s a little difficult to get to and park, but it was not too crowded but had enough people for a fun atmosphere. They had enough port-o-potties for runners, never had to wait more than a minute or two.

If you’re like me, I enjoy the events and production of races, not so much the running LOL This is a fun race that has beautiful views. From what I can remember it was an easy course which is great since I was way under-trained. But hey, I finished 🙂

This is a mostly flat course that reminds us of the tragic events of the Oklahoma City bombing. This race has many emotions associated with it. There is great support from volunteers and spectators. This is one of the few races I would be likely to do again. I would recommend it!

This race is just okay – it’s in a bigger city so there’s lots to do before and after, but the race itself is just okay. The course has some bigger hills than I like to run up, especially being a KS guy.

This was a great race that was overall pretty flat. It had a great atmosphere and and lots of support. I was running with some friends and we all had different paces, but we all had a good experience. Even us turtles at the back 🙂

It was a hot day…to be expected in July, but I was surprised at how few aid stations there were. This made it very difficult. The aid stations only had a fizzy electrolyte drink that was hard to swallow. I wouldn’t do this race again, but glad to be able to mark CO off my list of states.
