  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Read on-line reviews for this event as the criticism is justified. The mile markers are off...so much so that the 11 mile mark was BEFORE the 24 mile mark. Simple math... At 11 miles there's 2.1 left for the halfs and at 24 there's 2.2 left for the fulls. They seemed to improve on water stops from past events although for full marathoners I'd suggest carrying some water. The Expo is "poor", and that's being nice. The course is non-memorable...very few worthwhile views. Volunteers and support staff were friendly and appreciated.
