The only evening race I have ever done was the mile, which is in the summer on Front Street in Harrisburg and my age group would always go anywhere between 6-7pm. It was torrrrrture waiting that long to race!

I never had an issue with it being too dark to see. Sounds like they changed the 10k too. Last year it started and ended at a different time and place.
