About the Shark Week Showdown 5K, 10K - San Antonio, TX
The race runs through Lady Bird Johnson Trail Park, an ocean theme woven through the whole morning. Music plays at the start and at the finish, and the course has aid stations along the way. It is put on by Bigfoot Running Company, and their events tend to have a lot of personality. Age-group and overall awards go to the chip-timed distances.
Packet pickup happens the morning of the race, wrapping up shortly before the start. The schedule moves quickly from the kids' dash through the national anthem and into the main start. A post-race celebration follows, with awards handed out at the finish area.
