    This isn’t a big race but if you’re looking for a good half-marathon to get you through the summer, it’s a pretty good choice! It’s got some really decent hills and it’s almost completely on gravel, so you have to be careful about stepping on some pretty good rocks. The route takes you way back by a river and then out in the open to finish; a very peaceful run! Rest stops are right where you need them. It is August in Iowa so the heat is always an issue.
