Since I went to Raleigh solo, I didn't have to worry about where to meet up with anyone afterwards. However, I was able to meet a lot of new runner friends both before an after the race while enjoying some breakfast.
Prices of Rock 'n' Roll VIP packages very between locations and perks may also vary. To upgrade your race day experience you are looking at around $70-90/person, but if you are wanting to add a little bit of extra hospitality and feeling like a true 'rockstar' I highly recommend at least trying it once.
