Did the event in 2018
It was easy to pace myself for 5k, because it was generally flat. Around mile 5, there was a mile long hill though once over it's all downhill until the finish.Did the event in 2018
This race is my absolute fav and I cant imagine not running it every year!!Did the event in 2018
I wish I had known the route to get to the race once the main road was closed. Also, the hill towards the end of the first mile was a surprised. I would suggest take your time on the first two miles. No need to burn all your energy going up the hill.Did the event in 2018
Great, flat course with great staffing and wonderful signs to guide the runners.Did the event in 2018
Fun! Only issue I had was the address provided in my bib number email for packet pickup was actually for the MCX! Shirt is great, so much better than the Marathon shirt this year...
