Burn Your Half Off – Ohio
June 29, 2019
The Burn Your Half Off Race Series made it’s debut in Ohio in June 29th at the Eastwood MetroPark. The race started at 8am, with an out and back multi-loop course along the paved bike path passing one main aid station with drinks and snacks multiple times.
The aid station setup included Gatorade, water, tons of snacks (including, but not limited to, chips, pretzels, candy, pickles, fig newtons, and cookies), as well as towels and ice for cooling off.
Finishers received an Awesomesauce Beach Towel for the race swag, and a finisher medal for all distances.
Shirts were not included in registration but were available for purchase on race day.
This was a super fun and very well organized event. Participants passed each other multiple times on the out and back loops and were encouraged to give each other high fives.
It was another race over 80 degrees, and I finished the Half Marathon in 2:11.
Race results did not include ages, so I am not sure where I placed in my age group. I finished approximately 22nd out of 77 finishers, and 13th overall female. My time in the results is off by over 2 minutes.
