The race organization was pretty good. The weather the morning of the run created an awesome scene with just a gentle coating of snow on everything. The course is a loop with some small hills which go through nice neighborhoods.

Overall I would do this race again, only thing was

I pre registered for this race but got hurt and couldn't run in it today. My friend Keith is the RD and went down to the event to check it out.
I did speak with 4 runners who completed the event and they said they enjoyed it and would return

If you are tired of the hype with high prices so you get bands and beer and just want to run a challenging half marathon put on by runners, for runners, this is the race to sign up for. It is a reasonable $35 with good aid stations and post race
