Red 's thoughts:

Maybe I expect too much from races in Atlanta due to their huge running community...but here is the breakdown.

T-shirts/Swag: I bought the VIP package therefore I got the race shirt plus a 1/4 shirt. I like the 1/4 shirt however the race shirt is super big but has nice graphics. I had to go two sizes down in order to get a proper fitting shirt....they were not stingy about shirt exchanges, which was nice. There is no medal or any other swag on this race, which is a bit of a disappoint as there it is a fun theme.

Aid Stations: I am assuming they are better when the weather is good, however, there were only two (2) aid stations for the 10k. It really isn't bad if you are use to carrying your own water.

Course Scenery: With all the pretty places to run in Atlanta, this course doesn't do it. This course loops you through a not so pretty setting. I am not a fan of a looping course.

Expo: No expo, packet pickup at local running store.

Elevation: It's Atlanta, there are going to be hills and the hills are going to be tough and they are going to suck even more the second time around.

Race Management: Did a good job and I am sure it is a much better race with better weather. Oh and they allow dogs, which I did enjoy!!!

Overall: It was an okay race but one I would not take part in again....now add a medal to it and I would run it again just to get a themed medal. Ha.
