Race review

The 5K course is Oakliff on Kidd Springs Park and the surrounding neighborhood.

Parking: Free (next to Kidd Springs park but fills up quick)

They had some great post-race refreshments which included water, Gatorade, some treats. you could buy lunch for $10 too.

Finisher Medals for the 10K finisher and Cool T-shirts

THE COURSE

The course was generally flat and but 3 hills with different elevations. There were crowds cheerings and having a party and also gave you mardi gras beads.

3 REASONS TO RUN

1. They have an awesome Mardi gras festival post race
2. If you want to test your grit on a hilly terrain, then this is your best test.
3. Its a great atmosphere in general with a party mood and who doesn't like a party??

RACE EXPERIENCE

The weather this year was cold as compared to 2018 but it was still lively. I enjoyed the crowd and the running especially along the way as they cheered you along. There were DJs along the course playing music to cheer you on, too.
