  • Comments: Small race in a georgeous location. Run is on a completely closed course by the golf course, lakes, on roads and cart paths. Field was about 600 so not crowded. Only complaint, awards for the half marathon were 3 hours after the start, that is brutal to wait for >1 hour, so I skipped it. Otherwise, this is a great race, small field, easy/plenty parking close to start line and tent.

  • Comments: It's a small race with very few volunteers or fans, but, you know that going in, so it's not a complaint, just an observation...

  • Comments: Nice little race in a great environment. Aid stations only had water and Gatorade - Not such a big deal for the Half Mary but the folks doing the full could not have been happy. It's a Boston Qualifier but not chip timed so my time is from my watch vs. official time. I plan to come back mainly because I see PR potential from this course.

  • Comments: There were 3-4 spots that were poorly marked. Come to find out the fork in the road would often lead to the same place but you are not aware of that when you come to the fork. There was no post race activities and the food table was pretty bad - no bagels or coffee.

  • Comments: It was nice- missed the expo day before- but it was a small race maybe 500 total people. Well organized- needed a few more water stations, but it was ok. No real post race activities- but it was still a great early season event
