testimonials
I love this race!! It’s the hardest road race that I have raced over this distance…hot and hilly…but it keeps you honest! Can’t wait for next year
A combination of a tremendously challenging course but a fabulously friendly setting gives this event a charm of its own.
Definitely coming back as logistics allow.
I am excited about Walking this amazing local event again. I expect to finish in the bottom Five with my time expected to be 4 Hours 30 Minutes again!
Loved the 25km each time, can’t wait for the marathon in 2020
Totally awesome event. The castles for kids made it really special. Definitely keep them for next year if you can 🙂
Great day, really well organized. Awesome aid stations, and great atmosphere!
Would always recommend!!
