I will admit I decided to drive the 4 hours or so to do this race as I love history and have always found John Brown a very interesting man in the annals of US history. Now, for the run itself. We stayed at the only hotel (that I am aware of) in Osawatomie, Kansas. The room was a lot better on the inside than what you would expect from the outside. Original date had to be rescheduled due to hazardous conditions but went off without a hitch once it started. Small race in a very small town. Race is fairly flat on a trail with aid stations. I really liked the finishers medal and the additional bling for placing in my age group. Everything else was pretty straight-forward. If you enjoy US history (specifically the Civil War) then you may want to look into this race and visit the John Brown Musuem while you are there.
