Hilly, moderately scenic run

Fairly scenic race around neighborhooods and parks. Just as hilly as advertised, which definitely hit some runners hard on the back-half. Cool medals and organized well enough. Small race with the large majority doing the half marathon and very few doing the full. Very minimal crowd support aside from the occasional locals (which were appreciated). Good as a scenic or local race but probably not as a first marathon.
