Small but great race!

Full Review:

This year was the year mother nature through me for a loop! Morning started out nice and then turned super windy and a bit rainy! Typical North Dakota, a weather mystery! The race was well organized with lots of aid stations! since the race is new (year 3) the amount of runners is small too. But you run on the airport runway and through the scenic farm lands. Overall very fun and "relaxing" run! Highly Reccomend!

Race Tips:

Mixed terrain. You do run on gravel for parts of it. There is a couple hills that are pretty intense!

Travel/Logistics Tips:
