    This was an ultramarathon that was run mainly on paved golf cart paths on a former golf course. There was a little bit of gravel, maybe 20%, and a very small amount of grass surface. There were more steep hills than I expected, and they took their toll by the middle of the race. Only about 60% of the 50 milers finished in the time limit. The course map looked complicated, but the course was very well marked and there were two volunteers out on the course to direct us at two places where we had to take a sharp turn. This helped keep us on course and was a big help. There were no finisher medals, but the 50K runners were given a t shirt and a towel with the race’s logo. There were the usual hydration options available, but just snack food for nourishment. There was no real food such as sandwiches, pizza or soup. My description probably makes it sound spartan, but it was really a well-run race. I’m sure the race director will make some adjustments in the future and make the race even better. It was really a nice venue, but I didn’t like it that we had to park about 300 yards away from the start, and the course didn’t go by our vehicles in case we needed anything left there.
