Fun race course

This race went really well. It is a fun out and back course along the river and it felt like a really fast race, almost like a sprint down there and back. It was well done and set up with professional timing and had a good atmosphere. I would happily run it again. The 1st - 3rd place awards were wooden plaques that were absolutely amazing looking. Much nicer than a medal in my opinion.

River Run 5K is an unforgettable race

I recently had the pleasure of participating in the River Run 5K, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience that exceeded my expectations in every way possible. From the moment I arrived at the event, the organizers had a fantastic atmosphere set up. The check-in process was smooth, and the volunteers were friendly and enthusiastic. Their positive energy immediately set the tone for a great race. The course itself was scenic and a fast course. The course was well-marked to ensure that participants never lost their way, allowing us to focus on the race. One of the highlights of the River Run 5K was the sense of community. Participants of all ages and fitness levels came together to enjoy a healthy, active lifestyle while supporting a local charity. The finish line festivities were equally enjoyable, with a lively atmosphere and plenty of post-race refreshments to celebrate our achievements. Overall, the River Run 5K is a great example of a well-executed event. I left the event with a sense of accomplishment, a collection of beautiful memories, and a strong desire to return for the next race. Kudos to the organizers for orchestrating a truly remarkable event that combines fitness, community, and fun in the most delightful way!

Funnest 5k Ever

The Logan River Trail 5k put on by run aspired was seriously a blast! I am NOT a runner but run aspired helped push me out of my comfort zone and I was able to complete the 5k much quicker than I expected. The route was clean and beautiful, everything started on time, and registration was a breeze. The raffle prizes were GREAT and the staff and volunteers were friendly and encouraging. Overall the run aspired 5k was a great experience and I am so glad I did it!

Incredible Experience!

I loved this race! The course was beautiful and well marked. There were plenty of volunteers to direct runners and good treats at the end. Signing up for the race was really easy, and packet pickup was slick. The communication about race day was great, leaving me with no questions the night before the race. Overall, just a wonderful experience.
