Matt 's thoughts:

This was my 4th year of running the Stu Nevermann 4 Memorial Run. The course is a fairly easy 2 mile out and back with minimal elevation change or hills. Slight decline in the last mile that was a slight decline in the first mile. Crowd turnout is always a positive as the race falls on the Saturday Morning of the Band Fest parade so people get to their spots early.

One water stop about 1.25 miles in and comes back around at 2.75. Volunteers do a good job of cleaning up and providing liquids to the runners as they go. Shirt was quality again this year, but if you didn't register by the deadline, you had to pay an additional $10 to purchase a shirt. First year that happened but it was also the first year I didn't register on time so not the races fault. At the finish you had water, Gatorade, bananas and granola bars to choose from.

Awards went to the top finishes male and female over all as well as top 3 in each division. They also offer a parent and child division which is a pretty popular option as well.

Overall, this is a great but simple race. Not to many 4 mile races out there so you are pretty much a guaranteed a PR but have a chance to beat it each year!
