If you are running in the 4th annual Geist Half Marathon...you already know everything you need to know! But, if you are a spectator, this might be the post for you.
The race starts at 113th "ish" and Olio Road at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 21st. You can take a shuttle from HSE School or walk the 1 mile (in honor of the race!). You can also take a shuttle to Mile 3 which is also the Finish Line. The bridge is a beautiful setting to watch them finish!
There are many neighborhoods in Geist that will be able to see the race up close and in person including Springs of Cambridge, Weatherstone, Masthead and Feather Cove. This is the course map for the race.
The buses will leave very 5 minutes from 5:15 a.m to 7:35 a.m. to the starting area. The shuttles will then take everyone to the Finish line once the race has started and then back to the HSE parking lot between 8:30 and 1:00 p.m.
There will be thousands (probably over 6,000) runners and the weather looks promising.
Entertainment will include 10 different bands and will no doubt be a very festive place to be.
One tidbit you may not know...the Geist Half Marathon Inc is organized to inspire health and wellness in the children surrounding Geist Reservoir. They work to raise funds to sponsor fitness programs in the schools.
One final note...your Geist Real Estate agent wants you to know that if you like this area of town, I have a great listing in Weatherstone for you!
