I had a lot of fun running the half marathon! The event was really well run and there were so many runners. I went by myself and really appreciated the shuttles, gear check, and the ability to reserve parking in advance. The course was pretty and I enjoyed all of the spectators and volunteers cheering us on!

This was my first half marathon. The pacers and volunteers made my first half marathon experience overall good, but I would not really recommend this race unless you like a small no frills event.
-Race course: was short (~12.8 mi), with no mile markers, poor course markings – I almost took a wrong turn twice when I wasn’t with the pacers, plus it was a double out and back
-It was 10 degrees. The race is held in January in MKE so it is known that it will be cold, but there was no support provided from the event for the cold weather conditions. No thermal blankets, no heaters, no indoor shelter, no warm drinks, etc at the end. When I finished, my sweat instantly started to freeze and I started to get seriously cold and had to go try to warm up in my freezing cold car. Thankfully my partner came and brought me a hot coffee and I warmed up in his car.
-Barely any race photos were uploaded?
-The race swag wasn’t great in my opinion, and the smallest size offered for the race shirt is unisex small which is huge.
Overall, kind of ended up wondering why I paid for the race and didn’t just run 13.1 miles by myself. Again huge thanks to the pacers and the volunteers though, I still had fun!
