    Local neighborhood race. Ran with pace team. They were cool. Nice race and great swag. Cool medal. Good weather. Scenery is kind of boring but put some headphones on with some music or podcast and you will be fine. Will do again!

    Pre-race pasta dinner included at expo night before race. Race is on asphalt roads. Miles are marked and plenty of aid stops. Pacers also. Some hills. Breakfast after race (it was a cold day and the propane froze, so not everybody got the pancakes). Nice medal and longsleeved cotton t shirt. Race results posted fast.
