This was my first race last year. I wanted to do it again this year to start my running season off.

Registration was super easy online. Check in at the race took all of about 2 minutes and instead of a shirt they had either a coffee mug or wine glass to choose from!

The course was around a local park (2 laps) then down a mostly paved path, then over a bridge and back. A few hills but nothing crazy. It was a cold and wet morning so there was some mud to deal with but that just added to the excitement!

Crossing the finish line I was pretty happy with my performance. Not quite as quick as I had hoped, but not bad! I shaved 13 minutes off of my time last year! And placed 3rd in my age group!

Post race goodies were typical bananas, bagels, donuts, and other assorted goodies. It was a nice gathering of fellow runners from around the area.

I'd recommend this race to anyone who wants a stress free racing experience and ready to break out past the 5k mark!
