    I ran this race while I was at a conference in Dallas. The club that sponsors the race was incredibly friendly. The start was pretty, the biggest medal I’ve ever seen and the course was nice. Pretty fast. I met some good friends that I’ve run other races with since then. Pacers are super friendly and helpful.

    This is another great race from Active Joe Racing.
    I have run all their runs and all are first class.
    This run theme is the Texas vs OU football game. When you register you pick which team or neither and your medal reflects that team color.
    Ample free parking next to the course start/finish in the shopping center.
    The course is a good one, not easy but not too challenging. Screen shot from my nike app attached. It winds through the town of Fairview, through a few housing developments, down farm roads, through the shopping center, and also on the access road of the highway. The number of runners is not too few and not too many. On course support is the standard water/sports drink. Lots of police/EMT support. The post race refreshments normally consist of water, chocolate milk, bananas, chips, and my favorite that seems to be a staple at and Active Joe run, Nothing but Bundt Cakes!
