This is not a scenic race, but does have great crowd support! It’s a race on city streets with an extremely fast field… i.e. course record is 14:00 and typically there are several sub-15’s.

This race is great for a PR and results are posted soon after you finish but Awards are much later (8 AM start with all Awards starting at 10) Lots of attention given to the very young racers participating in the Little Trot 1/2 mile races. This is great for families and fun for them but hard on runners who have to wait a very long time for the Award ceremony to finish up.
