  • Comments: This race was very organized. The race doubled in size in the week prior to the race due to the cancellation of the NYC marathon and you would have never known that they weren't planning for that many people. I was a little disappointed not to get one of the nice shirts but I guess they made a decision based on sizing. It appeared that they had a nice variety of food afterward. I only had a some fruit, a bag of chips, and most of a donut, but they had all sorts of stuff - subs, bagels, bananas, someone said there was chicken broth, etc. The host hotel (Crowne Plaza) was reasonable and convenient. The late check-out (3pm) was nice! I don't think I'll run this one again because the course wasn't my favorite, but they were definitely organized.
