This race is entirely on a greenway in an out and back along a dry creek bed. There is no change in scenery for the entire length. Also, I was running with an injury so not fast.

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!
