Earl 's thoughts:

This race is very organized. Approx. 700 runners in heated flights from Pros to elite to age groups. It was a fantastic event from a crowd support perspective. Your actual race is over in about 5 minutes so everyone cheers on the other runners. Some of the age group heats were 80+ it was so amazing to see them hustle their way down the street. It makes you want to continue to run forever.
The swag was a standard t-shirt nothing to really show-off. The pro races were awesome and they had a #selfie station afterwards if you wanted to get in on the fun with your fave pro.
The corral was a little crazy per ushe, dudes with headphones moving to the front... it's a 1 mile race! move to the back. :)
Overall, loved it, splits at every quarter mile and photos if you want to purchase a picture of yourself with the pain face on. I'll be back.
