Danielle Fogerty's thoughts:

When they say this is the Friendliest race they are not kidding, this is so well run. The expo is a smaller one, but still lots to see. Bib pick up is smooth and easy and the place it is held has a TON of parking.
Race morning, again with the parking, TONS of it, you should have no issue getting a place to park. The corrals are very well marked and there are plenty of portopotties. They use the UPS trucks for baggage check, though I did not use it, it looked like it was going smoothly.

The race itself is great, you run through the neighborhoods, and there are people out all over, giving you candy, water, just cheering you on. You go over a few bridges and the wind can be a bit much, but the views are awesome. Also you run along the James River and man, just stunning. Also, their are bands or DJs all over the race, so you get plenty of music throughout.

The finish is in a nice park, with plenty of room to get around and lots of food to get. They even have yoga for you stretch out. They also have buses that take you back to the start line if that is where you parked. Also, not only do you get a medal, you get a blanket, which is so nice and a different finisher thing to get.

I loved this race, it is so well run and I would recommend it to everyone
