There isn’t enough parking at the start so late comers needed to be shuttled from farther in town. The start of the race was delayed because the shuttles were late getting back to the start line, which wouldn’t have been so awful if it wouldn’t have been cold and raining. The driving wind coming back off the bridge was bruttle. I am sure on a sunny day the scenery over the water would have been beautiful, but rain pelting my face wasn’t fun. The trail we ran on once off the bridge wasn’t really wide enough to meet on coming runners even if it hadn’t been driving rain.

The after party was great with warm food, cold beer and live music.

decided to use this as a training run for an upcoming race and ended up with one of my best times. Good swag, good course, small crowd. I’ve ran this race 3 times – twice under the half and once under the 10k.

Great organized small town race. The water stops were plentiful. I was concerned about running along side a state hi-way, but they shut down one lane and used a pilot car so never felt unsafe. The bling was amazing!!

Very nice smaller race to check off OK. The support from the PD and traffic control was top notch. The rolling hills were challenging but not impossible. MORE

The course was very congested when the 5k and 10k runners joined and there was 2 way runner traffic. For a smaller number of participants, it was unexpected, However it was all on a closed trail so there wasn’t road traffic – which was a plus. Otherwise a good race!
