Quite a fun race to be apart of! The start was pretty efficient and easy to find. Obviously, with so many runners, it was a bit crowded, but racing straight down Fifth Avenue was a memory that I will never forget.
Great race and atmosphere! Quick 1 mile sprint with great crowd support and a lot of runners! Slightly downhill, slightly uphill, back to a slight downhill, and flat for each quarter mile. Race was organized wonderfully based on age for start.
