Race Reports for Brave the Race

[1]

Race rating (3)

Comments: This is a very small race but was decently organized. The high school kids were the volunteers at the turns and mile markers and they were a lot of fun. Most of them yelled, cheered, and jumped around, encouraging runners along the way. The reason for the race is to raise money for middle school sports since some decision-making body decided to no longer fund sports for those grades. Last year the race made enough money to support the middle school cross-country and track and field team, so it was very good to hear that good things are happening with the proceeds. They also hold a 5K, which goes off right after the 10K and people are given the option of doing both, which a fair amount of folks did. The post race food was nice: soft pretzels, oranges, bananas, Trail Mix bars, Gatorade and water. Timing was very old school: stop watches and a race clock (but not chip timed) and the bib tags were put up on a board in the order of finish.
