I chose this race to do because the RD company, Ultimate Racing Inc. offers a bonus medal if you do 4 of their races in a calendar year. And since I'm all about the medals, I had to sign up for this one! I originally registered for the 10K but decided last minute I wanted to drop down to the 5K. The staff was really cool with this and it was easy to do.

The course is really pretty. It runs through Queens Harbour Yacht and Country Club, which has a lot of really nice houses to look at. It's really easy out and back and is really flat the whole way.

Post-race there was food from Chick fil a (yum) and fruit from edible arrangements (double yum). There was also juice and water. The vendors in the post race area were cool. Orange Theory Fitness was there with foam rollers and coupons for their gym and there were other tents set up with giveaways.

Parking was not terrible. You can't park at the clubhouse as that's where all the race festivities were so you had to park 1/2 mile away at a shopping center. Luckily the businesses seemed to be ok with their parking lots being taken over. It was early so a lot of them weren't open yet anyway.

It was a small race so I placed in my age group which is always fun. However, the certificates were pretty generic. I also got $10 to use at Jacksonville Running Company.

The medals were really cute but they didn't say 5K or 10K on them (there were 2 distances) or the date.

Overall I really liked it and will do it again!
