Big time race feel in a small town. I am partial to this race as it was in my hometown. The organization of the race and expo exceeded my expectations for a first year race. The course is challenging and the most hilly course I have ever raced on, though it's not like running in the mountains. This was such a cool race because I knew many of the volunteers and had constant crowd support throughout. This year the race fell on the same day as the local Lion's club pancake fundraiser, which was a perfect post-race meal. I would recommend this race to anyone who wants a moderately hilly course and nice race in small town! The community really embraced this event and is committed to making it successful.
