Run for the Water is yes a run to race, but it’s also about the experience and helping others in Africa get access to water.

The first half of the course is tough- Austin hills! Ups and downs through mile 7. And then it flattens out!

Good course to negative split!

I love how the race keeps to its mission and wants most of the money from the event going to its cause. So just a t-shirt in the swag bag. No medals.

But that’s not to say they cut corners on the course. Management did a great job of marking the course, aid stations, etc.

Course runs through some beautiful neighborhoods and it scenic for being in the city.

All in all a “feel good you’re doing it” race!
