The Tyler Azalea 10k (USATF certified TX03042ETM) is run on one of most demanding and beautiful courses in Texas. Yes there is still the "incline" that never seems to end on the 10k course, but look around and you are running through one of the prettiest towns in Texas. I will steal a paragraph from the web site of the Tyler Chamber of Commerce about the Annual Azalea & Spring Flower Trail that you will be able to enjoy after the race. "Mile after mile of azaleas, dogwood trees and spring flowers that you have to see to believe. The breathtaking beauty of our Azalea and Spring Flower Trail has been praised by visitors as a floral wonderland and a photographer?s paradise."
