Fox Cities was an extremely well organized race from start to finish. The course and aid stations were well thought out and the shuttle busses worked great giving numerous parking options. Exceeded my expectations across the board and has me ready to return!

The communication and organization were fabulous. I was so impressed with the number of volunteers that kept things moving smoothly and safely directed traffic. Finally there are so many spectators, it's easy to stay motivated when people are cheering for you the entire time.

Overall, this is a great race with awesome staff and a very friendly environment. There are a few issues that could be resolved… Although the start and finish line are in a very scenic area, parking is absolutely horrendous. There was also a long line for the bathrooms leading up to the race starting, and the race day shirts given out with packet pick up were a little disappointing… I recommend moving the start to an area that has way more parking accommodations, rent more Porta John’s, and bring back a classic cotton race shirt that won’t end up in the landfill. I will continue to participate in this event!

This is one of my favorite races. The communities come out to support the participants, the organizers and volunteers are so friendly and helpful, and the route is beautiful. It was so motivating to see different community groups out that morning cheering the racers on, playing music, holding up signs of encouragement, etc. Even private citizens were out to cheer on the racers. There were even private citizens along the route that put out water, treats, and fruits for those of us that were participating!! I feel as though the community and the organizers think of everything to make the race as painless and effortless as possible. I would highly recommend this particular race for anyone who is just starting out in the racing game or is an experienced racer.

Thank you to the entire team, including Julie for directing such an incredible event and Lois for so much support in miles 11-13 as she came in with me as the second place men's race walker. I can't say enough about how wonderful her encouragement was as I fought for and got my P...
