Heather 's thoughts:

This is the 5th time I have run this race, and it gets better every year. I love that it's Easter weekend, and I have worn the same bunny ears for 5 years running! The weather was humid but not too hot, the post race party was fabulous, and the course is nice and flat. There was a new finish line this year which was nice. We stayed at the Hyatt downtown which is where the expo was, and where the race started so it was VERY convenient.

Pros and cons:
Pros:
- Huge race, family oriented, lots of runners + walkers
- flat flat course
- great spectators
-post race party with free food and drinks, live entertainment
-first 500 finishers get a poster
-run through french quarter and shaded tress (for part of the race)
- lots of volunteers
-buses back downtown to take you to or from the race before/after

Cons:
-no proof of time for corrals so lots of congestion in the beginning with people walking
- pot holes all over streets, watch your footing
- wait in line for school buses to take you back downtown after the race
