Food/aid stations: Due to our unique course setup, we have one giant “aid station” that runners will encounter every 2.2 miles, with more food and drink than you could ever need! Ask anyone who’s run at least one of our races; we’ve got everything from fruit to jelly beans to sandwiches, water to Gatorade to hot coffee, and everything in between. Way more than just granola bars and bananas!
What about the bling?
We all know that’s the best part!
