This is a pretty new race that is hopefully going to grow. Mental Health Awareness is just starting to get the attention that is needed. The races started and ended at the Capitol which was really nice. There were lots of aid stations and volunteers to make sure we didn’t get lost while meandering through Jefferson City. I liked going across the bridge, the pedestrian ramps were fun because you could see many runners as you spiraled up and down them. Overall, it is a nice race with a good opportunity to place in your age group. : )
