Semaria 's thoughts:

Packet Pick up: I stayed at the Holiday Inn on Ninth Street, right across from the expo. The expo was small but I encountered no issues with packet pickup.

Starting Line: The walk was less than 10mins from hotel. Easy to navigate too. I loved being able to see the Arch, which makes for great photo backdrop. This race starts an hours earlier than the 5k does the day before. It was a little dark upon arrival to the race start line. No issue unless you are looking for someone in the large semi-dark crowd. The start line for this race is same as a the half. Corrals are easy to locate by signs. Easy to slide right into the proper one.

Race Course: The 10k course had a few more hills than the 5k course the day before. Not much crowd support for this distance either oddly. Nice scenery. Loved the bands playing at various spots along the course. Easy to locate the 10k/half split as well. water/Gatorade stops were easily accessible without crowding.

Finish Line: Running towards the arch in the background was nice again. After receiving your medal you entered the photo zone. There are volunteers passing out water as well. As you venture further down you find the Gatorade Endurance, additional Water, Chocolate milk (my fav!) bananas, pretzels, and chips. There were also ice cold towels with RNR imprint souvenir (very nice).

Overall, great course with hills, nice scenery and views of the arch= I would most definitely do it again.
