Organized. Communicative. On time start. Well marked path with 2 water stations for 5K. Good options for post race fuel. Clean restrooms available. Friendly and helpful volunteers. Will do again.
Suggestions for improvement: Fill water cups only 1/3 full as a full cup is too difficult to handle. Place trash bins more than 20 feet past water station to allow time for runner to consume.
