Most Helpful Review
2.5/5
Course: 2.5/5
Organization: 3.0/5
Suggestions

I suggest having a volunteer at every turn in the road. I suggest unwrapping the participation medal and placing on each finisher as they finish. I suggest adding an aid station at the 2 mile mark. Please add a chip timer too.
