Madonna 5K Where & When
Most Helpful Review
Madonna 5K
I thought the race was run very well. The course was generally flat and it was a nice walk. I'd definately do it again. The only thing I was unclear on is I initially thought the raffle was going off once they announced the race winners. I'm not sure if I had to buy a ticket or it was going off my race tag number.
Awesome Race
Great time and all for a great cause. #TeamBri Excellent organization, fantastic course, great day for the race!!!!!
Awesome experience
Love it would do it again

Had a great time rumning the course. Kids loved it and worth the cause!
Great cause!!
The first MK5 was good and I hope it is a start of a annual event. I would recommend some of the following changes: a real kids race in the parking lot, start on time, louder microphone, mile markers with volunteers, raffle (eg. signed Justin Tuck jersey) or 50/50 for the cause. Advertise more, especially in the CTT school. Otherwise it was a great fist event, keep up the good work.
Overall good race
Could have been better organized and start on time, but overall it was for a good cause and a great race course.

Excellent Community feel. We are running for a great cause. Thank you for an inspirational day!
Reschedule Review
Inconvenient to have race rescheduled within 24 hours of event (due to temps in 40s with high winds/light rain). Weather like that doesn't stop runners/walkers…been to races in near-blizzard conditions. Already registered for different race on reschedule date, so didn't get to run Madonna 5K which was disappointing. Happy that I still got to support the cause but felt the reschedule unnecessary and thus unfair to registrants. (Course rating actually N/A- required to rate to submit review)
Runner
So glad to take part in such a meaningful local run. We love running through the streets of our hometown and to see the community coming together to support one another. Fun route, worthy cause and a wonderful company
