Review of the Seosan Cosmos Golden Sunset 10k Marathon

‌

I have two classmates who lived with me for a year during university.
I didn't know it before I started running, but once I took it up, I realized they were all running too.
Because of that, I participated in a 10k race in Naju with a friend living there last spring,
and this time, three of us participated in a 10k race together with a friend living in Seosan.
Before the race, I was satisfied with a time of around 45 minutes,
but after getting a record of 44 minutes and 9 seconds thanks to the race hype, those 9 seconds feel quite regrettable. Of course, even if I were to run again, there's no way I'd shave off those 9 seconds. lol
The Seosan 10k course had no uphills at all and the surrounding scenery was beautiful, making it great for running.
However, there were over 3,000 participants in the 10k, and since everyone started at once,
the main route was so narrow that not only was the initial bottleneck severe, but it also looked quite dangerous.
I plan to participate with my friends again next year, so it would be great if they could just modify the initial part of the course.
