Running next to an active (and busy) runway was quite the thrill! I was hoping to see a plane or two, but during the race, I must have seen at least 7 or 8 take off or land. And it only got busier after I finished. Obviously, there is no shade on a runway, but the race started just before sunrise, and if you were able to finish quickly enough, the sun wasn’t much of a factor. Otherwise, it got a little warm which is why I gave the course difficulty a 2. Didn’t use the water stations, but there was one of them that served two different points in the race.
The medal was very nice, and so was the technical t-shirt. Unfortunately, the t-shirt ran large and doesn’t fit me, which is a bummer.
Organization was good. There was an American Airline 787 (big plane) right there in the main gathering area. It was great for pictures.
I highly recommend this race. The experience is like no other race.
Amazing Experience
