You do not want to miss this race next year. While there is
some room for improvement, this race was fantastic. The price was super low,
$40! You really can’t find a half marathon for that price anymore. There was
plenty of on course support with the aid stations and police at every
intersection. I was not expecting the kind of police support that was provided
because it was a small race and a low price. The shirts are nice, I especially
like the color and design. The medal was the same design and color, so I think
it’s my new favorite.
The course itself was challenging, however with any
challenge you get to feel that great sense of accomplishment when you have conquered
the hills. Don’t let the course discourage you from signing up for this race
next year, it’s really not as bad as it looks!
Talk about finish line extravaganza! This race had tons of
stuff at the finish line! They had a bouncy house, the Chic-fil-A cow, music,
and great food! My kids were so entertained and my husband (not a runner) even
said how much stuff they had there.
There was some room for improvement. While I loved the color
and design of the shirts, they were just normal t-shirts and not a shirt I can
run in. I am still going to wear it but I won’t be able to show other runners
how awesome I am because I ran the hills in the Herriman Half.
The website and communication from the race directors needs
a little boost. I like to get a reminder email confirming the details for race
day and that was missing with this race. The race results weren’t available the
same day as the race. But I really like the details that are provided now that
the results are available. Overall, these were very minor issues that I am sure
will be considered before next year.
I give this race 4 shoes! I look forward to running this
again next year and convincing all my running buddies to face those hills head
on.
