I've run this race now several times, and I've found it to be a very friendly, "small town" event - much simpler (and more fun in many ways) than the "mega-races". Always a great time. Thanks !

Hi Kevin - your key memory is AWESOME! I totally missed seeing the bald eagle fly over the starting line during the National Anthem. Someone else mentioned that they saw three bald eagles in the starting area, but I didn't see any of them. Thanks so much for coming out to run our race. We appreciate it! - Kristen

It would be nice to have both Gatorade and water at each aide station. Great event and well organized!

Hi Christopher, thanks for the great review and the feedback about offering Gatorade at all the stops. This is definitely doable on our end, so we'll look to add that in 2025! Thanks for racing with us! P.S. Your key memory about this wind made me laugh - so sorry it felt like it was coming at you on the way out AND back!! - Kristen

Also loved seeing that great winter trail view photo on what must be the prettiest race bib I've ever run with.
