  • Comments: This was my first marathon, so I don't have a great base of knowledge on how these things are supposed to be run, but I thought the support before, during, and after the race was phenomenal. Tons of volunteers with tons of stuff (water, gatorade, shirts, post-race food and activities).

  • Comments: This group always does an amazing job on their races. Super organized, grat volunteers and great swag. I got a really cool hat at the end and a finisher's shirt. Lots of food, drink and beer. Although I had no interest in walking through the sand to the beer/stew tent.

  • Comments: Since there were 4k entrants on this race, we decided to pass on the tent facilities bc it was insanely crowded. Plus we could get beers and food anywhere.

  • Comments: Great race by J&A as usual. Love all of the extras: race bag, tech shirt (that actually fits!) finishers long sleeve shirt, awesome finishers running hat, finishers medal that open beers, post race beer/food/concert (that I missed out on but looked like fun!) Missed the space blankets at the end and wasn't sure about the Carb Boom gels but overall very happy with the aid stations and porta potties.

  • Comments: I was very pleased with the race, there was water when I needed it, there were bathrooms very often and the volunteers were very friendly and helpful. the chute felt very long at the finish and they didn't give us much water at the end up other than that it was a great race.
