    This is a small race so maybe it’s not fair to compare it to bigger half marathons but still, there are more cons than pros in my opinion. The race shirt was cotton and there were no AG awards (or any awards at all for that matter), no after race party, just water, bananas, and granola bars after the race. There were pretty much no spectators on the course. Now let’s get to the course specifics. It’s crushed gravel for a large portion but the gravel is large enough to make it difficult to get your footing, especially on the uphill portions. I struggled for a majority of this course because of the layout. I was not a fan and found this one of the most difficult half marathons I’ve ever run (this was my 50th half). It was far from my fastest finish time, but definitely not my worst either. This race just let me check off the box for my half marathon in Minnesota. If you’re a 50-stater, I’d say, try to find another race.
