What Runners Are Saying About Our Events

  • "Having been a race director for 14yrs for a 5 &10mi trail run in Elmira, I have to say you did an outstanding job. Looking forward to next year and hopefully I will continue my streak of one to two."

    Jim C.

  • "I would thank you for putting on an amazing race earlier today at Colt Creek State Park. It was my first time running there and with how amazing everything was, has had me sign up for the one at Lake Louisa later this year."

    Mitchell R.

  • "We made it to the race today and enjoyed the event very much. It was well organized and your volunteers and staff were friendly and competent. Thanks again. "

    Marshall B.

  • "We had a great time even though we walk, and thank you for having dog-friendly events because I wouldn’t be out there without my dog! Great vendors and a great all-around atmosphere! Looking forward to the next one!"

    Lisa S.

  • "Thank you for a great race today. I would like you to be aware of one of your Medic Crew, Meegan who was outstanding. When I finished my race she came straight over to me sat me down and got me fluids. I was very dehydrated have done 5 hours of debris removal yesterday from this weeks Hurricane ahead of the race today. She was really brilliant staying with me until I was good to go to my truck. I think deserves a special mention as this was the first time this has happened to me in all my years of racing and her response was great. Thank you all for having specialists like Meegan at your races."

    Peter L.

  • "I admit it's been a while since I've run in an event but 2021 seemed like an appropriate time... And a wooded scenic trail was calling my name. The Lake Louisa course did not disappoint. I was pleasantly surprised by the truly beautiful and picturesque views. A wide cross-country start was just a prelude to the generous paths that the 10K route put me on. I've been a runner most of my life and the Lake Louisa run was a reminder of all that I love about running... the physical challenge, nature's quiet solitude, a community of upbeat people, and everyone gathering to accomplish personal bests!"

    Michelle W.

  • "I just wanted to thank you for such a beautiful course at Lake Louisa SP and ordering up such beautiful weather for us LOL! The scenery and the course were outstanding! Very well marked and I couldn’t help but notice how helpful and cheerful the Volunteers were!"

    Sean B.

  • "Best Race Series in the State!!"

    Christine D.

  • “To the race organizers and volunteers, I want to say a big THANK YOU to everybody for putting on such an awesome event. Colt Creek was one of the few parks I hadn't yet run in, and it was absolutely beautiful, and the trails were maintained so well - made for a great run. I ran my second-fastest half marathon today, pretty good for a trail run. Can't wait to do it again next year. Thanks again!”

    Paul P.

  • "Good morning. I am reaching out to say that the Overflow run was incredible and I had an amazing time. It was only my 2nd trail run but was much more "trail" than my first. It presented an awesome challenge that I am glad I ran and came through."

    Richard D.

  • "I just wanted to say THANK YOU again for helping me transfer our race registration. It was the first time our family did a race together (usually it's just some crazy thing mom does 🤣) and my kids all are hooked! So grateful for the opportunity to experience it with them. Also, love that you all prayed for us before the race. Anyways, just wanted to say thanks and let you know I appreciate you and all the people putting on the race yesterday 😊"

    Mandy G.

  • "The Florida Run isn’t just about the race; it’s about the experience. The organizers, volunteers, and even the vendors are incredibly welcoming and encouraging. Need a boost? They’ll lift your spirits! And the runners? They’re a fun-loving, supportive bunch who cheer each other on from start to finish."

    Billy Nolas

  • I found your race as a good training option but after seeing the shirts my girlfriend was mad she couldn’t participate. She really liked there were color options and the pinkish one she thought was awesome! Everyone was very nice, plenty of bathrooms, super efficient parking and packet pickup so I thought it was extremely well organized.
