    This was a small race (about 100 runners) with very few spectators, but it was beautiful and the weather could not have been better. The folks directing the race were super helpful and kind. It was also one of the more inexpensive races ($45), so it was a budget-friendly option for my family. It is a mostly flat course along a river, some light trails, and a beautiful finish crossing a bridge over the river. Smaller aid stations; didn’t matter to me as I carry my own things. Just a lovely surprise: a great way to spend a morning was running this race!! I came in 3rd in AG and only my second half, PR by 9 minutes, so it was a great run for me!

    Great small-town race. There was some nice running along the river. Pretty flat. Finished 2nd in my age group which is always a great surprise! MORE
