This race had the typical Griffith Park route. I thought it was well organized for a smaller race and very fun. I enjoy running in Griffith Park although it is not a great place to PR since I find I can’t run as fast on dirt as road. Race is relatively flat. There was congestion at the water stop and at one point, the slow 5Kers, medium 10Kers and fast 10kers all crossed paths at the same time. Finish area nice with Hawaiian themed entertainment. Nice medal and non-tech shirt especially for a short race.
VERY ENJOYABLE, scenic trail
The surface was 75% soft, seemed like it is used as a horse trail. I didn't expect it, but I was pleased I finished well. I will definitely run it MORE
