  • Comments: Very well organized and a great, fun course. Would have been nice to have had the swim, but the organizers made the right call I think with regards to everyone's safety. Nice of them to have a pre-race meeting for new athletes, I found it helpful. Overall a great event, I would like to run it again.

  • Comments: Swag bags all say CHM (Cincinnati Half Marathon) a total push for the promotions up-coming event and the shirt was an ugly off orange color. The post race food was adequate--orange slices, watermelon slices, bagel quarters--nothing spectacular. Overall I was pleased with the event and plan on entering again next year

  • Comments: The venue for this race is awesome, and very spectator-friendly from what my fiancee had to say. Everything was very well organized. The bike course is about the toughest I've been on to date, but that's not saying very much. I'll definitely consider this race for next year.

  • Comments: This is a pretty young race, so there were not a lot of participants compared with others. This was nice as the swim start was not overly crowded. I think the organizers will continue to learn and get better as this race grows.

  • Comments: I rated this race as average only becuase of the smallish field. You cann't beat the location! Most races I do are in uninspiring rural locations. With the race taking place in downtown Cincinnati there were plenty of sites to enjoy along the way. It is also a very spectator friendly course.

  • Comments: Bike course not marked off clearly in several spots. Run course not marked off at start. Transition entrance/exits chaotic and not blocked off from spectators. Several people crossing the entrance to the transition ran into me.
