“Karen Bishop comments: "It is a 7 mile out and back race on the Davenport hills, with alot of fan support along the way. Bands and music are scattered thoughout the course. The post race party is large and includes a costumes contest." "It's hills, challenges, a huge party and a town that waits all year for it to come ...crowds and parties all along the way!"”
