About the Run Now Wine Later
The race starts in front of the city pool in Gatesville and is tied to a local wine and beer tasting event happening the same day. That pairing gives the morning a social pull that most standalone road races do not have, and the finish area feeds directly into it.
The start area near the pool is straightforward to find, and the race draws a crowd that spans runners and walkers alike. For those of drinking age, wine is part of the post-race picture, which tends to keep people around longer than usual after crossing the finish.
