Early pricing for the Frigid 5K was just $25. Same day packet pickup, a nice hoodie, a 5K, great hot chocolate and a nice warm place to congregate before and after the run. Can't ask for much more.

The course for this race is 2 loops around a small park and a middle school with a narrow section on a sidewalk. Not a very interesting course but if you run it with a friend you might not even notice. It's just a good opportunity to get outside on a Sunday morning and do a no hassle event -- no parking fees, not a big crowd, a no stress run.

The after party for this event was really well run with great hot chocolate and a fixin's bar, including whipped cream, along with bagels, bananas, muffins and gatorade. I love small events, the food is good and the fun is huge!!
