  • Comments: My only issue was that you had to walk a bit and stand in line (10 min) to go into the finishers area and get water and food. They need to have water immediately after the race. OH, and my Garmin and my buddies Garmin both had the race at 13.35 miles not 13.1 miles.

  • Comments: This was a great race. I liked how they had the different starting groups. I bet that helped out a lot. Plenty of aid stations and volunteers. I couldn't believe how many people there were out cheering us on. It was awesome. There were a lot of bands out there too.

  • Comments: This was probably one of my most favorite races. The neighborhoods you run through in Dallas are gorgeous and the lake is pretty too. Nice and flat for the most part and the volunteers were great!
