The organization at the start was confusing, but the course support with water stops and volunteers was great.
Swag is a technical tee advertising the sponsor. It’s nice enough and it is fun to see them around town the rest of the year on fellow runners.
The thing that drives me crazy about this race? All the folks who walk with their friends 3-4 across. It would be one thing if they all stayed to the right, but they’re everywhere. Lots of weaving and dodging required. Perhaps organizers could add some run left/walk right announcements/signage? I know this is supposed to be a team building exercise as much as anything, but improved race etiquette would be great for everyone.
