This was my eighth year in a row running this race (one virtual), and I plan to continue to run it every year! This year happened to be super hot and humid, but there were three water stops for the 5K, along with an optional fire hose spray at the end. I took one star off for the aid stations because the third aid station ran out of cups, but I was able to get ice. At least there were more aid stations than a usual 5K.

I included the awesome post-race party in the swag — there's a full dinner with pizza, chicken, ice cream and beer, along with a live band. We also got a cotton T-shirt celebrating the race's anniversary. The race is affordable, at $25 in advance. This is an evening race, and packet pickup is held race evening.

It's a flat and fast road course around the Delaware Technical Community College in Georgetown, Delaware. The course is two loops, with the second loop a little shorter than the first.

Parking was super easy this year and I was able to park closer than in previous years. Parking is also free.

This is a fun, well-organized race and I recommend it!
