You complete loops around the lake, get great views of the lake, people rowing, planes, etc. Two short hills, you only feel them a few miles in. Some gravel on the course, but not bad.
The main aid station is fully stocked, high energy, very fun. The second aid station is across the lake, pretty much self managed with just water.
You do reuse the same bib for all three days, which is doable. Definitely wish there was a way to identify who all is doing all three days. Highly recommend!

Day before pick up at race hotel.. The bib worked for all three days which is great. The RD, I know personally and she puts on a great race. So about being the new kid… with only 30 some marathons I was the least experienced runner. These guys are mostly over 300 marathons. The whole idea is to get together as a group and run, run/walk marathons. They are all out there just to finish…. spending lots of time talking on what is going on in their families. I would say this is more of a meeting of runners with running on the side. Very enjoyable and low stress.
