This was my third Ragnar Relay and I had an amazing time!
As usual you get a nice t-shirt, the cool team puzzle finishers medals, tattoos, and stickers!
The aid stations were like a normal Ragnar race, where there are some on what are considered the hardest and longest legs. None of my team had any issue with their placement. I think some people brought handhelds though.
The scenery was very pretty during most of the race! We went though multiple wooded areas and by multiple water sources!
I count the after party as the expo. I was really happy with this after party. They had much more substantial food options this time, two choices of wraps, AND they even had both types in a gluten free version!
It was decently rolling hills. I want to say during the middle was the most uphill, which I missed out on due to lightening. It was a bummer my middle leg got cancelled, but also I can understand their need for safety and they did say we could run other runners legs with them to make up for it.
I counted parking as the ability for vans to maneuver/pull over to cheer on runners. The roads were fine and were plenty of opportunities to pull over along the course.
Race management did an excellent job of providing a really fun course and race!
