I have done this race only once. I usually travel to another state to run a 10 miler each year. I decided to give this race a try and was not disappointed. The hill at the end is a big cuss word, but you forget about it once you climb and cross that finish line. I mean a run by the beach and lakes??? Yes, please. The volunteers and spectators are in abundance. The manner in which we grab the number and shirts could be better, but it doesn't take anything away from a great 10 miles.
