The Waverly Park Trail Bash has two distances - a half or a quarter marathon. It's also the second race in DC Timing's three-race Trail Bash series. While they offered both in person and virtual options, I opted to do virtual because I'm not quite ready for an in person race.

My friend Melissa and I completed the quarter marathon at Waverly Park a couple of weeks before the race. It had snowed, but the trail was easy to see and it made the woods so pretty! The trail was in decent condition and the elevation made it challenging enough to keep it interesting.

The medal is super cool. This year for the race series, DC Timing picked a really pretty medal design, and the idea is that the three medal will connect together to form one big medal. While the medal it awesome, the shirt quality and design isn't on par with previous DC Timing race shirts. They used to be known for super soft shirts and cool designs, but the shirts this year aren't soft and the font reminds me of an early 2000s screen saver.
