  • Comments: Honestly, they had everything setup perfect. Shops had post-race discounts, tons of free food I skipped out on. Only improvement would have been Gatorade or something similar at the water stations. Results: http://www.coolrunning.com/results/09/ma/Mar15_32ndNe_set1.shtml

  • Comments: The amount of New Bedford police on the course was unbelievable. Same with the local spectators. The town really comes out for this race. It was great.

  • Comments: Second year in a row for this race and I think the course is just unassumingly difficult. There are some obvious hills to climb at mile 2-3 and 12, but the low grade downhills seem to be what wear out the legs, but contribute to fast splits mid course. Both years the last 5k seems very tough into the wind and then up that last hill.
