Angie Maske-Berka's thoughts:

Registration: Available online through getmeregistered.com and on race day. Fees in the $20-$25 range. Included with fees were a pair of colorful socks with CBRC and chili peppers on them, a plastic mug, bib number, gloves, a coozie, and chip timing.

Pre-race / Packet Pick-up: Packets could be picked up the day before or on race day prior to the race. Parking was available near the start or down the road at the golf course, which was further away for late arrivals. Bathrooms available in main building on property, one each male & female.

Race & Course: After some announcements, (I was in the back & couldn't hear them) the National Anthem was sung live. A gun signaled the start and the race was under way. Course was on paved surfaces, asphalt, chip n seal & cement. Needed to be careful for uneven cracks and potholes. Lots of hills, finish was uphill. Water stop at the half way point turnaround in paper cups. Each mile was marked with a sign. All intersections had a volunteer directing traffic, major intersections had law enforcement. A few spectators were cheering on friends / family members. The finish had a clock that was started with the gun, a flag, and timing mat to cross. The first 40 finishers for each gender received an insulated travel mug.

Post Race: The post race festivities were held in the building on the property. Water, beer, chili, sloppy joes, chips, cookies and bananas provided. The building had many tables and chairs, but was still crowded. Awards given.

Overall: Hilly course, great swag! I would run it again as there are not many races in my area this time of year.
