I did this race in 06 and 07 with work as a 5k and had a good time, and in 08 with a walking team and had fun. This year I did the race with a group of newbie runners to help get them through the 10k. What I learned this race is very 5k and walker focused. once the 5k and 10k split and the 10k goes onto the lake path there was nothing. At points the group I was with was not sure we were on the course. There were not any markings or volunteers on the course till you got down to the museum campus to let you know you were going the correct way. Then one block before the finish the roads were not closed and you had to wait for a stop light. and there was not anyone at the finish line. it was backwards so you couldn't even tell it was the finish line. The group i was with were new runners and going a slower pace, but the 5k walk group started 30 min after the 10k so there still should of been people at the finish line and the roads closed. Also out of the 5 of us running together, only my results showed up and it showed me finishing 10 minutes ahead of what our group actually ran.
