Danielle Fogerty's thoughts:

In my goal to race all 50 states this was my Iowa race and I picked a good one. To start for both the expo and race, they have free parking areas where you can park and then they bus you to the expo and race. I used that and it was great, saved me some money and trying to navigate a city I don't know.

The expo isn't big but it is nice and well run. Still some stuff to see there and the bib/shirt pick up is easy and smooth. The downtown area where the expo is has plenty to see and do after.

The race is hilly, like very hilly, and it is in July so it is hot, so I wouldn't go into this race trying to get a PR but you can enjoy it still. The city of Davenport comes out for this race, tons of people out there cheering everyone on. Lots of hoses and water guns and people handing out Popsicles. There were plenty of aid stations and they all had plenty of cold water.

The afterparty is big plenty of food and water and plenty of room to walk around and not be squished.

The medals are really nice and so are the race shirts. Overall I really enjoyed this race, and would recommend it
