Amy 's thoughts:

4.3 mile trail run around Amana RV park. Well organized with packet pickup day of race. Run was advertised as a trail run with some water, in reality it was a lot wetter and muddier than I anticapated. Very fun once I abandoned the hope of staying clean or dry.
After brats, Millstream beer (2 kegs: one amber, one wheat), bananas, cookies, Gatorade, water, and granola bars provided. They did run out of brats towards the end, not sure if everyone got one.
Finisher medal and a very cute baseball 3/4th sleeve shirt. Was promised women's sizes but was given a mens. Bibs & timing chips.
Hoses at the end to wash off, porta-potties on site. Parking right by registration and starting line. Arrived 30 minutes before race and was able to check in with plenty of time.
There was one water station on the course (about halfway) and the obstacles backed up quite a bit, so it wasn't a great race to time. Obstacles included hay bales, rope climb, teeter totter, and lots of mud/water crossings. Waist deep water at one point, slippery and very muddy. Course is uneven, hilly, and terrain varies: dirt, grass, rock, mudd, sand... lots of branches, trees, thorny/pokey plants.
