I have run this race all three years and have really enjoyed it each year. The course is easy and finding parking is also not a problem. This year the swag bag was ok, playing cards, candy, some tattoos and an ok shirt. The previous years we received long sleeve shirts.

I ran Saturday and it was unfortunately pouring down rain. But luckily Zappos was giving away free ponchos so we could stay dry! I even ate a free doughnut before hand because it is Beat the Blerch after all!

I will say the course was super crowded and the start was completely disorganized so I had to bob and weave through all the walkers at the beginning. The aid station was the same way. Overall I ran a pretty decent time, got some sweet free race photos, and had fun while running in the rain so this race is a 4.5/5 in my book!
