I love this race. There is easy access to parking and some fast competition! Frozen feat has great refreshments and treats after the run! Even oranges for someone like me who is gluten/dairy free! The environment is fun, and we all suffer through the cold together! I love the camaraderie. I have gone to this race several years, and love it every single time. There is easy access to bathrooms as well. Always a plus! I also always have an accurate distance on my Garmin, which is important to me as well.
