Rock and Roll Virginia Beach is a fairly flat course, but it takes place in September every year during holiday weekend. What that means is it is extremely humid during this race and if you don't properly hydrate, you will be in for a long race. The spectators are great and many of them will be out in front of their homes handing out popsicles to help runners battle the humidity. The course itself is nice, with one of the highlights being when you run through the military base. The race ends on a long stretch down the beach shoreline. You are guaranteed to be dripping sweat by the end but it is well worth it. Put this race on your to-do list.
