So well organized--race well marked, great post-race tent with drinks/snacks. Great race, I'd highly recommend!
Very organized and a great course
The race was for a good cause, suicide prevention. The 5K trail course is paved, flat, and shaded. Easy parking. Very low sign up fee, nice shirts and fruit, cold water, and chocolate milk at the end. Nice medals for the extremely fast winners. I would race this again.
