Pat 's thoughts:

The 10K was my 2nd race of the Hat Trick. I absolutely loved this course. It was a nice mix of some hills with a fast finish. It concentrated running through some of my favorite places in Bethlehem including down main street. You can't beat running down Main Street with the cool shops and a lot of people out. The course had a couple miles the same as the 5K but you won't mind it. My wife did her first ever 10K and really enjoyed the race as well. I ended up running a sub 23 final 5K on the course to give me my best 10K time by 2:30. Course has plenty of water stops and also ultima on the course. I didn't make mention of this in the earlier posts but the race also provided free photos. It was a super nice touch. The course rewards you if you pace the first half because you can rip the 2nd half pretty good. Thought the spectator support was great throughout.
