  • Comments: I did this run 5 years ago and it has HUGELY increased in scope. Granted, 5 years ago it rained...and this year was GORGEOUS! Not too hot in the morning and not super humid. They had decent food (including free jamba juice) and free grilled chicken Chik' Fil' A sandwiches (but you had to stand in a long line and I didn't...and they ran out, but I'm guessing they had at least 300-400). They had bouncy play stuff for the kids and a stage with awards. A reasonably priced, fun and family-friendly event! (Little ones will want to go and do the dash and then play!)

  • Comments: DID I mention I DID IT?!?!? I ran 3.1 miles - and even had a little kick left in me the last 0.1! I'm glad I made sure to get a good nights rest 2 nights before the race. I always feel like I'm tired because of lack of sleep from night before the night before... I'm also glad I didn't eat too much. I had a bottle of water and drank 2 small glasses during the race...just a smidge over too much. I could feel small cramping - but nothing major. I was just glad I didn't have any food in my stomache...WOO HOO!!! I've done the swim distance of my race, I've done the bike distance and NOW I've done the run distance...NOW if I can just combine those all together...
