It was a fun race but it was super cold that day. This was my first race since moving back stateside. I signed up for the 15k. I never thought to eat candy during a race lol. I think that was in the beginning. The cheering kinda goes down when the 5k and 15k split off but it wasn’t a big deal. Plenty of hydration through out the course. The swag was awesome. I wear my zip up hoodie all the time for runs. The expo was nice too and we got to taste some of the goodies that would be in the finished mug. Only thing I didn’t like was if you are a slower runner by the time you finished and got to the finished mugs they had ran out of chocolate fondue. So more motivation to finish quicker next time. The medal was nice but if I’m right only the 15k gets medals. It looks like a candy bar had a bite taken out!
