So I already did a race from this set in a different location (Couple Shuffle Overland Park). I left a great review for the other one. If I had to choose only one, it may actually be this one. The 5k course is a single-T course, the 10k is two laps of it. The overwhelming majority of that race is the “top” of the T, not the vertical leg. I liked the tshirt and loved the medal last weekend when I earned it elsewhere in the set, so it’s still just as great. The course was a beautiful closed off road (both lanes) making the whole path from the start line to the finish nothing but race area. You pass a lake on the top left part of the T as well as what would be an overflow waterfall had it been rainy. There are hills, a couple of which I’d say may border on just more than “rolling” but nothing protracted and nothing punishing. it was a great way to break the monotony of a flat track and get back in the swing of the hill work some of the other races in the KC area requires. Gatorade was on the course, something that’s grown rare on a non-summer-race shorter than a half. and the volunteers were super friendly and motivated. Absolute “do again” race and I hope more races in the future take advantage of this great course.
Second time just as fine
