  • Comments: I really liked this race! The spectators and volunteers were awesome!! The schwag was really good w/ a technical shirt. Medals were great too. Ice cream at the end was the best though! Course was OK...parts were great and others weren't good. Brad honestly made this race for me. On top of running w/ me, he kept my spirits high and made sure I ate, drank, took salt, etc. I can thank him for my finish time...if I ran solo, it would have been slower. I think I'll keep him around. ;)

  • Comments: This was a nice race. Pros: beautiful course in a great location. Lots of fluids on the course. Course is a green race course, marked with sand. Big mile markers and clocks at every other one. Cons: temps vary drastically year to year. Limited porto-potties on course (not that I need one, but a lot of others did), the hills, no pace groups

  • Comments: A good race, made me realize that with more mileage and no injuries I might someday be able to do some distances....I heard from other runners (the marathoners) that they ran out of gel and food at some of the aid stations at the end of the course. Enthusiastic crowds though! Always cool to have people cheer you on!
