All paces welcome as long as you don’t mind running alone!

Agreed! I always look for smaller races. I don’t like dealing with crowds or the logistics of crowded events.

My one exception is the Manchester Road Race on Thanksgiving, which is bonkers crowded, but I like the whole “this a big deal in my town” experience. I want to murder people who immediately start walking in the first quarter mile, but once I pass them it’s fun. 😂
