Great race...great course, good food, plenty of beverages, great prizes, good music, awesome swag.

Great race to start a New Year. Again.
I greatly appreciated the food, drinks, pre-race snacks like fruit for those of us who has too much of La Cruda to eat breakfast, and the course was very well marked and had plenty of hyrdration and race official support. And the race was pretty much exactly 3.10 miles, or 5K. Other races struggle with precision. Only suggestion ... even with a long line, could the race still started at 10 and the late folks just allowed to pass the starting line a little late. I've been allowed to join in as late as

The race had a great location, easy to find, and ample amount of parking. The race and course itself was well organized with markers everywhere.

Great race! Hope y'all have it again next year, I'll definitely sign up!

Great Race!
This was my first time participating in the race and I really enjoyed it. The route was enjoyable and it was very well organized! It was a great way to start off the new year and I look forward to participating again next year.

Best way to start the year!
I convinced 5 of my friends to run a 5K on New Years day. They agreed even though they would all be at my NYE party 😂 We showed up, froze, and ran. No regrets and we plan to do it again next year. Very fun event. Well organized and the course wasn't bad.

New Year race
This is a great run to start the new year. Good course,

Great race! The course was marked well. Love the vendors that come out for this race and the “swagâ€. The FB posts leading up to this race make it fun also! (Would only add that having water right at the finish without having to search for it would make it better.)

La Cruda Highly recommend
Love Hillotes!!!! Helotes is my favorite to run. Great course my only adjustment may have been the hilly part up Antonio first at the beginning of the course. Start on time and let the other runners catch up if late registering. Or separate pre from /late Lastly my time never showed up which is odd because I preregistered and my friend registered day of and hers did. No biggie. Not like I’m Boston competitive but curious how it matches my watch. Will definitely recommend to others and will run ag

Awesome
VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER AND VERY FRIENDLY PEOPLE!
