I didn't know what to expect with this race, but it was pretty great.
The Expo was very easy to navigate and they had bib pick up right up front which was so nice. The shirts were very nice and I will very much use mine again. The expo wasn't too big but enough to walk around and check out. Also, the building it was in was very easy to get to with PLENTY of parking.
Race morning, again, PLENTY of parking, and you can hang out inside, which was nice as the morning was a bit chilly. I did run with a pace group, 3 hour, and the pacers were excellent and so friendly. The race itself was fairly flat, some hills here and there but nothing extreme. The views were lovely and you got to run through downtown which is always fun. A lot of the local breweries were giving out beer samples, so that is always fun.
I didn't get to stay for much of the afterparty as I had to get back to my hotel and check out, but they did have a lot of snack and the medal was very very cool.
Overall, great race, great small city to run in and would recommend this for a race in Missouri
