I have run this race 2 years now. Same course both times. I will say good job on the intersections and telling us where to turn and such. Not the most beautiful course to run but well marked. Here is a warning this course has a 3 hour time limit - that is just under a 14 min/mile. It is doable and they will hold the timing line a little more than 3 hours but don't expect anything even if you finish at the 3 hour mark, there was maybe one photographer there, the pancake breakfast was packed up and there was a table of waters. I left with one person saying, "do you need anything?" The medal and the shirt look exactly the same, same white long sleeved shirt, same generic medal. I agree with other review, I have received nicer 5K medals.

Another complaint I have is there was no fuel on course except water and Powerade. I carry beans with me and maybe there was something for the earlier runners (I am a back of the pack girl - especially for a 3 hour limit course) there was nothing. Disappointing. Oh and make me laugh at having a spaghetti dinner in a smoker bar - my daughter loves the bar but it is not the place for a packet pick up.

BUT the benefit of this race - it isn't packed, it is well marked out. It is cheap. I probably won't run it again next year unless someone gifts me the run again. Two years is enough.
