• Comments: I'm just going to insert the same comments I wrote last year, as I still feel exactly the same way about this race --> The Suffolk County Half Marathon is a No-Frills race: virtually no spectators, no bands playing, it's as basic as basic gets --- and that's what I loved about it. The course is uber flat - maybe a half dozen gentle inclines and declines; there is some wind. So if you want to set a PR, if you want to get in a really fast-paced training run, this is your race. I'm going to label the Suffolk County Half Marathon a "Purists Half Marathon". My kind of race.
