Fall 50 is an interesting race, it can be a serious 50 mile ultra or a fun 5 person relay. There is a party atmosphere, with the relay teams wearing costumes. For the relay the legs are varying lengths and difficulty. The overall course is (mostly) scenic along the Door County peninsula, a popular vacation destination location for Midwesterners. One leg goes through a state park.
Driving from one relay exchange spot to another is fairly easy, with only one being difficult to get to in time due to traffic and the length of the leg. This was Exchange 6 at the Egg Harbor Boat Dock. A lot of runners were dropped off from cars on the way to that exchange.
Fall in Door County at this time is beautiful, with the fall colors close to peak. The weather this year was on the chilly side and windy with some rain, but still an enjoyable running experience.
Packet pickup is easy, race swag is a very heavy medal on a chain link necklace and there was a quarter zip fleece this year. There is a party tent at the finish line with music, pizza and beverages. This is definitely a fun race and one I would recommend.
