Real runner feedback on course feel, crowd support, aid stations, and logistics (parking, hotels, restaurants).
Small well supported race. It is hilly so be prepared. I only ran the half so perhaps the full is easier but the half is tough. The scenery through the Pennsylvania Dutch country side is nice. The support from the Garden Spot retirement community is excellent.
As I said the course is hilly. There are plenty of water spots. The roads are open to traffic but they are very, very quiet so its not an issue. There is a modest but pleasant post race set-up.
I drove in on race morning (yes there is race day packet pick-up). I got there about an hour early and that was plenty early. Volunteers are there to help you park on the lawn right by the race start.
