Anyone running Broad Street this weekend?

This is my first year and I am excited.  If you have run before, any tips for a newbie....this is also my biggest and longest race ever (have done a 5k and 5 miler with a max of 1500 participants).

Re: Anyone running Broad Street this weekend?

  • It sold out too damn quickly that my H and I couldn't get in :(

    Anyway, last year was my first year doing it and I thought it was a pretty good race.

    I was kind of annoyed at people walking in the beginning when I thought I was in not a slow starting heat, so I had to dodge a lot. Other than that it was good. It stays pretty crowded throughout most of the race.

    Good luck!

  • This will be my third year running it! I love this race.

    I try to get there at least an hour and a half before the race begins. The port a potty lines are really long and then you want enough time to get in your corral before the race begins. The first year I did not make it to my corral in time and the beginning was a mess for me! 

  • I will just be a spectator this year, but I hope to be running it next year (provided the registration cooperates)!  Good luck and report back about how it went!

  • This will be my third year.  Just bring your patience, especially at the end.  Congestion after the race--from the chutes, to the food lines, to the flipping road traffic--has made me soooo grumpy in past years.  I'm really trying to go into it with a more peaceful attitude this year--we'll see how it works out :-)  Good luck!
