I ran this race 10 years ago for my first half marathon. (back then it was called the Hyundai Half and it was in October). This year was branded as their 10th anniversary. ((I’ve been trying to locate results from the first year, but no one seems to know either who was in charge then or who would have the results.))
This year, I ran as a pacer for Beast pacing.
I drove over the morning of and parked in the stadium garage. For a race this size, there should be race day packet pickup. Luckily, some of the other pacers were able to pick up bibs for those who drove in the morning of.
The course was well marked and members of the Air Force were spread along the course directing traffic and marshalling. Aid stations were well stocked and spread out evenly.
The race finished inside the baseball park on the outfield. There was plenty of food, drinks and aid in the park.
BOTTOM LINE: Well organized event. Not to big. I would definitely do it again.

Challenging course
Most of the race seemed uphill. Nice small local half marathon. The race was in residential areas and downtown. Nice ending in the Riverfront Stadium. MORE
