Decided to give this race a try as they were giving out shoes to the winner. I love my Pearl shoes so I win shoes, sell them, and buy some Pearls!
The race was great. It was quite small- just around 120 people. The course was difficul with 2 miles uphill at the start, 5 miles gradual down hill and then the last 7 or so were gradual uphill with a couple steep up and downs. Not a walk in the park. I wanted it to be a good effort but not over do it and it was a great race for that. I met some really nice people and picked up my shoes on the way out of town.
And I ran with a police escort stopping all traffic throughout the whole city. Everyone should be able to experience that.
