We did the Rock 'n' Roll Savannah 5K as part of the Remix Challenge on Half Marathon Weekend. If participants completed the marathon or half marathon on Saturday and the 5K on Sunday, they were entitled to an extra "Remix Challenge" medal. So of course, we were in.

T-SHIRTS/SWAG - 5Kers got a nice, gender specific, tech shirt and a really pretty custom medal. Rock 'n' Roll medals are always top-notch: well-designed, heavy and excellent quality.

AID STATIONS - There was one water stop along the course, which was plenty for a 5K.

COURSE SCENERY - Beautiful. The course went through a gorgeous neighborhood with tree-lined streets and stunning architecture. The race ends in the Savannah Bananas baseball field, which is kind of cool.

EXPO QUALITY - Fantastic. Packet pickup was easy and went very quickly. Lots of great Brooks gear and running gear. Basically, anything and everything a runner could want or need.

ELEVATION DIFFICULTY -

PARKING/ACCESS - The 5K and 1 mile races were a little out of downtown, with limited parking in Drayton park. If you arrive early, there is no issue getting a spot inside the park. Other than that, you have to find space on the streets. Not the end of the world, but not convenient.

RACE MANAGEMENT - I love Rock 'n' Roll events. This one was no exception. Even though it was a far smaller event than the full/half the day before, there was plenty of crew on hand, and entertainment at the finish line for the runners. Post-race snacks included water, gatorade, free beer, fruit cups and pretzels, which was a nice change from bananas and bagels. The park was pretty for hanging out prior to and in between races. Real bathrooms and portapotties were both on hand.

This would be a great standalone race, or done as part of the bigger Remix Challenge.
