Recap: 2012 Orc Stomp Fun Run 5k

I can't imagine a better way to start Gen Con than with some fresh air and a run around a pretty state park.  Wait.  Yes I can!  Fresh air, a run around a pretty state park, and ORCS!  Thats right, a band of orcs came by for the race!

If you're thinking of attending Gen Con and want a fun run, this is your event.  The race organizer and all of the runners were incredibly nice (as I've found with everyone I've encountered here so far).  For the ridiculously low $10 entry fee, you get a shirt, some snacks, water, and even a finisher medal.  The only complaint I have has nothing to do with the event.  The morning air in Indianapolis happens to smell like oil.  I'm not sure why it does, but it makes running mildly unpleasant.

We'll definitely join this fun run on future Gen Con trips!
