The weather was perfect for a fall run in the woods. Clear, breezy at the knob tops, 58 – 70 degree range over the day. The colors were gorgeous.
The race production supported enjoying the day. Good pre-race communication, nice staging area with adequate parking, restroom facilities (I was there an hour and then 15 minutes before the start and didn’t see a line), aid stations, and course marking. The aid stations were well placed if you were wearing a vest and had a nice array of food, water, and sport drink.
There was a map you could download to your watch; I would do this in the future, the course loops all around on the knob tops. I was signed up for the marathon(ish) 27+ miles but must have missed a turn (totally my fault) and ended up having the 50k distance my watch. Couldn’t have happened on a better day.
The swag was a nice looking medal. Tshirts were available if you registered in time, and also hats.
Can’t think of a better way to enjoy perfect fall weather.
