  • Comments: Overall I would give this race a "Fair" rating. It's pretty low key but it is organized, but with only 1300 runners I think keeping it organized shouldn't be that difficult a task. There were plenty of volunteers and an ample number of aid stations. There were lots of course markings in the form of directional arrows. The finishers medals were HUGE (I'll post pics when I get them). I was hoping for more than just apples, bananas, oranges and water at the finish. What was kind of a bummer was the lack of people at the finish. I think there was like 50 spectators left when I came in. All the 5K and Half Marathoners were gone! I guess I"ll need to sign up for an Ironman if I want a spectator packed finish.
