This is an easy, flat run. I’m not sure I’d categorize it as a “trail run” myself… some parts of the course are DG or something slightly natural, but a good amount of it is a large concrete sidewalk. There is no shade, but the Trinity River is pretty to look at. And good thing, because it’s an out and back x2, meaning you run past the exact same things four times before you’re finished. This is not ideal, but I knew it was the case when I signed up, so who am I to complain.
There is limited food/water along the course (BYO bottle) and there were close to zero spectators/cheerleaders.
I like the size of the race – not too crowded – and I feel they did a good job of spacing out the starts so I was never struggling to get around slower runners, or people running a different distance. The after party could have been structured better. I ended up giving my beer and taco tickets to someone else because the line was like 200 people long and moving VERY SLOWLY.
Overall, not a bad choice if you’re looking to cram in one more race before the Texas summer heat kicks in. I wish it were cheaper, but isn’t that always the case?
