The cost of the event is relatively cheap for the great dri-fit t-shirt and medal you get. If you do all of the events in the series throughout the year, you also get a special finishers medal at the end of the year.

This particular race was pretty chilly, but that is normal the second week of march in missouri. The race course was fairly difficult - there were a lot of hills. I ran the 5K, but the 10K had to do the course twice. I would be exhausted after doing all of those hills.

There were not many "treats" after the race, maybe some water and bananas. I would have liked to see more, especially since I had to go to work afterwards.

Another perk of this race series is that all of the events can also be run "Virtually." If you sign up for all of the races and then find out you cannot attend, you will still receive the bib, medal and t-shirt to do the virtual race on your own.

Overall, I think this is a great way to get people active and I really enjoyed the race. I plan on doing the rest of the events in the series.
