I was pretty scared when I looked at the course profile. I trained on as many hills as I could and started the race at a pace I would for a marathon. In truth the race was not that bad! The worse was the toll bridge coming back, its a long slow climb plus we had a pretty strong head wind. I would do the race again, going out at a faster pace this time.

Nice race, with a couple hills. No expo but easy packet pickup with different locations on different days. Fun location to check out the Lake of the Ozarks- a little out of season, but we still found fun things to do!
Nice little race
Difficult course and the weather was not kind. Nice small entry and friendly volunteers. Easy transportation and interesting change in scenery. MORE

Pack for everything and expect anything! This race was so much fun. Running in areas typically only traversed by vehicle was something special. 740+ feet of elevation gain, roaring winds 40 mph+, gorgeous views and pelting rain. What a day and what a race! I am already registered for next year!
They provide the option of a tee or a ladies tank, which I LOVE- I will wear the tank again and again. There was a very nice finisher’s medal also. If you wanted a stocking cap- it was an extra $15, which I did purchase.
