Love the race

I have ran this race for over 5 years. It is one of my favorite runs. It is for a great cause and is at one of my favorite places to run. This race course is beautiful and challenging. The race has always been well organized. This year the course and organization was as great as ever. I was originally disappointed in the awards metal because it was the same metal no matter what place. It was just like a finishers metal. Since then though I was contacted and given a cup for the award I placed for. I will continue to run this race in the future. Thank you for putting this race on.
