This is a 10 mile loop course with multiple distance options. The course is set in a park setting and is on a paved trail. Hands down, this is the most organized race I've seen. From the communication prior to the event (you are never left with unanswered questions) to the personalized attention I received from the volunteers during and after the race, I am just in awe. The expo is smaller, but great swag for runners and also includes a guest speaker (this year was Catra Corbett who is an amazing ultrarunner), lots of free activities, swag giveaways, and a spaghetti dinner. The event loop starts and ends at a school gymnasium, where you can hide from the elements before and after (or during) the race. Parking is all located close to the start/finish line/expo area. There were 3 aid stations on the course and they are packed with everything that you need (water and tailwind provided as liquid hydration). The park is fairly flat with a few hilly portions, but it is not a technical course by any means. Everyone is so nice and supportive; I think this is a great race for newbies but probably also seasoned ultrarunners because there were alot of returning runners to this race! I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to jump to the next distance in their running journey.
