This is such a fun race! I went last year and my entire family had a total blast. There were fun activities for the kids, great exercise in the downtown area for me, and something more challenging for my husband who's a more experienced runner. Plus, my mother was in town that weekend, and she sat on the side and cheered us all on! I'd definitely recommend it--especially for such a great cause!
Agreed. Great race. Well organized, energetic people, overall very enjoyable experience. Can't beat the cause or the fun
