Samantha Zimmerman's thoughts:

I thought this was organized to a T. The only issue we had prior to the race was getting to the parking garage access, but having free parking made up for it. The expo wasn't as large as I expected it to be and thought there would be more vendors selling items. With that being said though, I absolutely LOVED the lululemon collab that was provided to purchase. Loved having more race gear and loved the race pullover! As far as the race goes, the course was absolutely gorgeous and I never once felt bored. There is one spot that was similar to cobblestones and made your ankles yell, but it just gave more challenge (as if the hills weren't enough.) This is definitely a hilly course, but I'll be honest and say the downhill finish makes up for it. Aid stations were everywhere I needed them to be and the best part were the gummy bears. I even walked to enjoy them (no shame!) I wish I would have trained better for this race because I know it wouldn't have been as painful for me. I would recommend this race! Also loved the free high quality photos!
