Good communication. Easy directions. Organized packet pick up.
Ample, free parking near the start/ finish.
Indoor restrooms and staging with live music as you greet so many familiar faces!

This well marked flat and fast road race is family friendly including so many fur babies on leash or in buggies. 
Tons of police and volunteer presence for safety.
One water station on course and bananas at the finish line.
All athletes receive a nice SS themed cotton shirt. Awards go to top 3 overall and age group finishers.
