This was the very first time this race was run and I ran it as the 1:45 pacer. It a very twisty course around the Olympic Park and runners do cross each other quite a bit. This does help and all the runners encouraged each other which is great to see. The route is fairly flat with just a few inclines and no more than that and it's a great way to see all the venues in the park. Mike markers were a bit out as It was measured via GPS, however, this is a minor thing and for a new race which has a lot of turn backs it's only to be expected. The organisers did a great job with access and parking was straightforward and the event will only get better and grow.
