This was not a great race for me, but despite that the course was nice. I want to start by saying that the course was a little difficult to follow at times. They had a 5k, 10k and half marathon all running at once, so things got a little confusing. At the start, the race director announced that the half marathoners should follow the black signs and then others should follow orange signs. That was fine until I started seeing both colors, and then we went through periods where there were no signs. I almost missed the continuation of the half marathon course, and even saw another runner stopped and looking totally confused. There was a big hill that we had to climb twice, so that was pretty difficult considering the sun was out and there was no shade. The views were great though! I would like to run another race within this series to redeem myself, but I might not run the same course again.
