Fantastic event/course from start to finish. Pros – Smooth race check in for getting bib/shirt at Richmond Raceway the day before race. Parking downtown the morning of race was easy and had no trouble getting out quickly after, although I did park in a lot that cost $20 which was a bummer (not sure if there were free lots available). The course itself was great, mostly flat with only 2-3 short gentle climbs throughout with a nice downhill to finish. Adequate and plentiful aid stations throughout with people cheering you along the whole course. Felt like a giant party/celebration the whole way. Big shoutout to the emergency response system the race has in place – I personally witnessed 2 racers go down with injury/health issues and emergency crew were readily available to attend to both racers that I saw.
Only cons – parking cost as mentioned above (but that could have just been the lot I chose, not sure if there were cheaper/free lots available. And for some reason I was given a unisex small (thought I ordered women’s small), which turned out to be huge on me, but I was able to exchange it for a women’s small that fit me much better.
I am super glad I ran this race. It was a PR for me for the half distance, and my first time running the half in Richmond. I plan to return next year for the full marathon!
