Race Review - Red Tail Trail Run

There were several options and we chose the 5K.  I was still trying to get my wits about myself after being gone almost 2 weeks in Africa then doing the Spartan.  But we did it.

It was hard to find.  The GPS took us to one area and we had to drive all the way around the resevoir to find the race area.

It was a small race and was for a good cause.

The course was marked well for the most part.  There were some hiccups and confusion that could have been avoided had they had a volunteer there to direct runners.

Overall, nothing to really speak of.  I will say they had the best post race grub - fruit, donut holes, fruit snacks, crackers, granola bars, pizza!

So the review of the event Red Tail Trail Run
Terrain - Some pavement, mostly trails
Organization - organized okay
Cost - $30/person
Time of the race - 4:00pm
Overall - It went to a good cause and was a typical 5K event.
Swag - medal and teeshirt (not the best color - goose gray)
My Time - 34 minutes - not bad considering I hadn't ran in 3 weeks, got 3rd in my age group!
Race #21 (42 total to date)
