    Neat run along parts of the river
    Loop course which you had to do 3 times for the half. On 1 of my loops through a parking lot a delivery truck was blocking your way.
    It was very hot and humid but it was August when I ran it.
    Supports a great cause Cross Country Missions.

    Branson is a great place for a race and the RD made sure it wasn’t all hills. Unfortunately, the day was very humid and even with an early 5:00 start it was 70F. I quickly knocked out the half but then the sun came out. It was burning hot and humid. Then for the last lap #6 the storm came in and I was able to finish before lightning started. In all I am very tired now and have the tough back half of the year to finish now. But I successfully completed YTD #9.
