This was a very pretty course along the beach! The only minor problem was that they don’t let you drive out of the park until EVERYONE has finished both races. No one knew that, and there was long line of cars trying to get out of the parking lot.

You also have to drive off site to get your goodie bag after the race, but it’s worth it! You get a free reusable shopping bag filled with full-size drinks and snacks from WholeFoods AND two free sandwiches from Chic-fil-a! Yum!

Fun course, nice event, but wasn’t the best organized run. Problems getting to finish ( start and finish same spot, not enough volunteers to route us around the next group), the web site said things that weren’t true ( kid size shirts, 6:00 am breakfast). Still, fun race overall

This is a great race to bring the kids to. They have a wonderful 1k loop for the little kids.
