T-shirts/Swag- 4/5
Shirts were gray with distance running on the back & nice design
Men's shirt a little short, women's shirt was specific sizing and fit me perfectly
Gear bag was really nice design and custom with zipper on the side
Beautiful finisher's medal

Elevation Difficulty- 2/5
Some say it's flat, but it depends where you are from
No gigantic hills, but enough to make you work a little harder if you train on very flat land
One medium overpass that you cross twice due to down/back

Water/Aid Stations- 4/5
Plenty of water stations and volunteers handing out extras
No shortage of porta potties, but lacking tissue in 3 I used

Course- 4/5
Beautiful scenery of lakes, trees, & LSU on the course
Some sections had a lot of potholes

Crowds- 4/5
