There aren’t many night races. You have to go in with lower standards. There’s no finisher medal for this one though, and I do kinda have high standards to the point that I feel like there should be a medal. The tshirt was pretty basic cotton.
Seems like 3 shoes is pretty generous huh? Here’s the deal it’s a nice figure 8-shaped paved trail through a park with an awesome after party with local frozen custard. The trail is marked down the middle with chem lights, and I mean they are like every 5 feet. It’s the best-lit night race I’ve ever been on. The after party in the amphitheater has Cuties (Owaris), Uncrustables, Bananas, apples and custard. It’s pretty much eat as many as you want. There are tons of dogs there, which I always love on a race, and Bodies Race Company always has a motivating DJ who keeps the tunes cranking out high energy. The swag is super weak. There’s no way around that, but I said there was no reason to go back last year, then I didn’t sign up when this opened up, then I thought about it and was like “well….and it IS a night race…
And yeah I’l probably be there next year as well.

This night race was a wonderful suprise addition to my summer schedule.
Nice night race through a park. A little dark in places but a peaceful race to connect with the night. My pace sucked, but I had just gotten out of the hospital the day before, so it is what it is. Great energy before the race and great post-race get together in the amphitheater with frozen custard and games to play. Medal was nice too for such a small race.
This was really peaceful. I’ll certainly do it again.
