There is a reason this race sells out quickly. Watching the planes up close while running on the same runway they use is an amazing experience. The race vendors had awesome giveaways as well. The golden medals were super nice as well. I plan to participate again!

It is a flat, easy course however … the crosswind … it made this one so much harder. A lot of runners to dodge; 2000 on one tarmac. It supported a great cause. Well organized and nice vibe; for a 5k a very well put together event. Also plenty of water!!! Always important when in humid climates.
LOVE IT!

yes it is a flat straight course but its a great way to just run & get your best PR on a 5k! please corral your kids though. too many young boys running willy-nilly and sideways all over the course, you almost run in to them. the after party food is the BEST! shrimp & grits from Ulele. YUM!
Just finished the 2018 race. LOVED IT! Nice change of course put us running past the private jets and Amazon & UPS planes. Pretty nice. Again, BEST after-race food! lots of snacks & bananas were taken home as well.
