Packet Pick-up: Easy to find with lots of friendly volunteers to answer questions. The vendor booths were a little disappointing to me, but this was a smaller race so not a huge deal.

Race Day:
-Unexpectedly colder (39°F) which actually felt great!
-Marathoners started before half marathoners which was amazing.
-Lots of port-a-potties & actual park bathrooms on the race route.
-Plenty of aid stations with items like water, Gatorade, fruits, & gummy bears
-There were some hills, but if you live in this area or train for them, you should be fine.
-My only negative would be the inability for my family (or really any spectators) to get to me at any other point on the race route other than the starting/finish line. It made it difficult to get my extra fuel, & having support on miles 20-26 would've been helpful.
-Finish line was full of snacks, the rhino medal, water bottle filled with water, & towel.
*Overall a great race if you like a smaller atmosphere (like 300 or so) and don't mind the hills. Thank you 7 Bridges for being my 1st marathon:)
