Jessica 's thoughts:

Ultimate Racing, Inc does it again with another great race! I chose this race to do because the RD company, Ultimate Racing Inc. offers a bonus medal if you do 4 of their races in a calendar year. And since I'm all about the medals, I had to sign up for this one! I ended up doing the 5K instead of the 10K and using it as a shakeout run for a half the next day.

The course is really pretty. It runs through St. Johns Golf and Country Club, which has a lot of really nice houses and pretty flowers to look at. It's really easy and flat with a run post-race area at the Country Club's soccer field.

Post-race there was water, donuts from Dunkin, and granola. Nothing too special. The vendors in the post race area were cool. Orange Theory Fitness was there with foam rollers and coupons for their gym and there were other tents set up with giveaways. There was a chiropractic office doing chair massages which felt amazing.

Parking was fine. I got there 15 minutes before the race started and scored a front row spot.

It was a small race so I placed in my age group which is always fun. However, similar to other Ultimate Races the certificates were pretty generic. I also got $10 to use at Jacksonville Running Company.

The medals were really cute but they didn't say 5K or 10K on them (there were 2 distances) or the date.

Overall I really liked it and will do it again!
