This was a 12-hour ultramarathon that was run on a 2.6 mile “lollypop” course. After a short section that went along a paved path through some woods that were filled with small birds, there was a long straight stretch on a two-lane road that had little traffic. After the field was spread out, you had the opportunity to see runners going in the opposite direction and greet them with a wave or a few words of encouragement. This was a small race, but everyone was very friendly. Even though most of it was on roads open to traffic, there were few cars and I really didn’t feel unsafe at all. About 3/4 of the course was on paved roads and 1/4 on a gravel road. The course was fairly flat and even this out-of-shape runner could run the hills (if I wanted to). The swag was plentiful, including a shirt, a car magnet with the race logo, a coaster, and a few other trinkets. It probably helped that I knew the race director and her husband, but all of the runners were friendly and I was able to meet some new running friends. All in all it was a very successful day.
