  • Organised?
  • Events on time?No

  • Lots of volunteers to help?
  • Plenty of drink stations?

  • Post race activities?
  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: This was a nice, small race. Very low key compared to some of the MUCH bigger races i've done this year (Shamrock Shuffle, Chicago Marathon, Chicago Tri, Hot Chocolate, etc...), and a great way to wrap up the 2012 running season.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Pros: -Lots of bathrooms if you were willing to go to the beginning of the pier. Didn't bother me at all. -Could wait inside right up until the start. -Gear check was easy -Some vendors were there giving out Kind bars and a fake Muscle Milk type drink Cons: -Path can be narrow -Race started late, and a bit earlier than the 30 minutes late that they quoted -Didn't seem to see sports drink, maybe only at one table? -The finish area was wide open to tourists at Navy Pier, sort of wacky when you're trying to run in strong I might do this race again, depends when my schedule is like next year

  • Comments: Overall, the price might be a little steep for a race on the same lakefront path you can run for free, but it did seem pretty well supported despite the early hiccups. I might or might not do it next year.
