I knew nothing about this race going into it, but I loved it. It is pretty much flat the whole way until about mile 11, then one big hill. The neighborhoods were beautiful. Made me want to move there. The race organization definitely had it together and they were very friendly. I thought things went very smoothly. The shirt and medal were great and finishing on the horse racetrack was pretty cool. I would definitely repeat this race.

This was the hilliest race I have ever run and I train on hills. It rained like crazy for this race and we started late. But rain aside, I still didn’t like this race for all the hills, and I found it boring. We ran along fields and more fields. Not even any interesting houses and nothing near the battlefields. It was nice to have the hotel ballroom to stay out of the rain before the start, but I’m glad I stayed elsewhere for lodging. That was hyped up more than it actually was. The expo was ok by actually having a few vendors, but don’t expect to find something specific you might have forgot. I had trouble finding what I needed.

This is a very hilly course during a very hot humid August. I enjoyed the scenery on the course, pretty houses. There was one downhill that was so steep I didnt see anyone attempt to run down it. Although that hill was short. We had a bear cross the road right in front of us early in the race. Bit unexpected.
My major grief with this race is that from before mile 11 to the finish there were no people directing us, and no signs. My pal and I got lost, ended up running in the street to realize that cars weren’t stopping so we had to get on the sidewalk. We tried to follow the music and ended up coming in facing the finish line the wrong way and going up a block so we could come back down the finish the correct way. There were several other people near us who also got lost and were trying to figure out where to go. There definitely needed to be more people directing runners. One cop at an intersection telling us, go left then take a right up there is not cutting it. I can’t even remember what food or if there was any cause I was just glad we found the finish.

This race is entirely on a greenway in an out and back along a dry creek bed. There is no change in scenery for the entire length. Also, I was running with an injury so not fast. However, when I finished they had already broken down all the vendors and food. I didnt even get a water bottle. There were at least 20 people behind me and I think that the message we got is that we weren’t as important because we were slower.
