Sandy Bailey's thoughts:

Bib pickup: They offered on site pickup the day of the race or we had the option to pick up bibs at Road Runner Sport.

PARKING: Free parking near the expo/start line at churches and schools across the street.

COURSE: They had us split into corrals based on how fast we'd finish.
-Mile 1 was easy and pretty flat. No hills and lots of runners going fast!
-Mile 2 was the opposite, hills on hills. When I turned the corner and saw a familiar hellacious, never ending hill that I’ve ran in the past, I saw a sea of runners turn into walkers. I don’t blame them, I took walk breaks during the climb.
-Mile 3 was so much better. It was fun running downhill to the finish line!

SWAG: All participants received a goodie bag with a fan (?), hot/cold pack, tape measurer, multiple bottle openers (that I can’t use until 2019) and finishers tee shirt. There were also TONS of vendors to visit after the race.

KIDS: There's also a kids 1K race for those with children old enough to run the course. I believe it was free too!
