Emily White's thoughts:

I've ran the 15k here in Scottsdale before, as well as the 5k. This is a huge event for the Phoenix area.

5k-ers get a really nice 3/4 zip jacket, plus an huge finishers mug that has hot chocolate, chocolate fondue and dippers.

15k-ers get all the above plus a custom medal.

Packet pickup was available for 2 days prior but not the day of the race. On race day, traffic and parking is CRAZY, so plan on arriving early and carpooling if you can! The races started on time and went smoothly using wave starts in corrals.

The course is super flat and BORING. They do hand out candy every 2 miles or so, if you're into that!

The mug is great but it is a real bummer that you have to sit on the ground to eat it. Not ideal.

This race is very popular, the local running community comes out in droves with family and friends to get their chocolate on!

And one last final nice touch - free downloadable race photos for everyone! Hooray!
