This was a very well organized race but I didn't like not being able to do packet pick-up on race day. The race isn't that large that they shouldn't be able to accommodate same day pick-up.
The race itself could have had more course marshalls as some runners seemed to be skirting the official route to shorten it for themselves.
It was my first time doing this race so I can't compare it to previous years but I'd do it again for no other reason than to run in this area of Annapolis and around the Navy Stadium.

This was my 2nd year doing the race. I was amazed how inspiring running & finishing this race was probably because of the sheer size of the field and to see women of all body types running/walking it. I wasn't able to enter in 2016 because of a previous commitment on race day and I was actually 'sad' that I missed it and had to live vicariously from my friends pictures.
The Expo after the race had wonderful giveaways and plenty of after race refreshments.
Parking was at a nearby parking garage but detailed information with plenty of options were emailed in advance so you could pick the best one for your needs/budget.
Weather was beautiful & I loved the swag (a medal for a 5k is wonderful & I still display it!)
