I wanted to do a race in June that was not in a warm climate, so I chose Minnesota. This race was the better option due to logistical reasons. It was a small race, considering others that I’ve completed. The packet pick-up was at one of the local grocery stores. The swag consisted of a drawstring bag, water bottle, and T-shirt. The course was two loops through neighborhoods and a beautiful park. Hydration stations were every two miles or so… which was a good thing. There were a few unexpected rolling hills, but I got over them :). The half-marathon had a 4-hour cut-off, which is good for some of us slower folks. However, some of the runners who finished after the 3-hour mark only received water at the finish line. I’m not sure if they’d run out of the other stuff. Finally, the medal. It was a nice, sleek medal that I will add to my collection.
It was Ok!!!
