    The timing was spot on. Nice race course. Nice snacks for sure at the after-party, including beer. The awards were very nice and they gave away a good Finisher Medal. MORE

    Fast and flat course in beautiful St. Petersburg if the weather cooperates. 2023 brought mid-sixties with very windy conditions. 20 mph headwinds were rough, but they became tailwinds returning to the finish! Super nice husband/wife team coordinate this event. Starts running along the Tampa Bay with some beautiful neighborhood homes. About mile 10 to 23 is on the Pinella bike trail. Appreciate not having to fight traffic, but gets kinda lonely. RD said they’re planning on having live music on the trail next year, which will be an upgrade. Very well organized with water stations and Police at every questionable intersection. Packet pickup location was a little frustrating as it’s at a park and the address given isn’t real clear. I found it, but had to help several others stumbling around as I did searching for the small tented location outside in a large park area. Overall…..definitely a nice way to knock out FLA if you’re going after the states!
