Race Tips

You should be sure to make it clear that there is a half marathon relay option. SO FUN and just enough for couples, besties and more!

Logistical Tips (Hotels, Restaurants, Parking, Discounts, etc.)

I'm a local resident. The parking was great. The two options to gain entry was great. The drink/snacks were perfect! Well stocked and lots of options. The goodie bag was nice.

Review

I enjoyed the course. It's mostly flat. It's not crowded. Parking is close to the start/finish line. Peaceful and scenic with the fall colored trees on some of the course.
