  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Good
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Another impressive event by Hartford Marathon Foundation. This race does not have a large field of competitors because the course is notoriously difficult. Those who do show up are quite competitive. Its a tough race and a tough field. If you can hang with these people, you've done alright. I feel like I did alright. I will have to go back in a couple of years and prove that I can do better.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: This is a well organized race with lots of great volunteers. The course is tough on both the bike and run. The swim in the lake is really nice, warm and doesn't taste bad at all, something I'm kind of sensitive to. It doesn't have a large field, only around 140-150. I suspect the reputation for hills keeps people away but it is really a great race with great food and great atmosphere. The people that do show up are strong athletes. If you expect to place in your AG, you had best train hard on the hills well prior to this race.
