  • Comments: Jerry and Amy do a fantastic job with this event. It's so much more than a race...an entire sportsfest weekend with good expo, 8K on Saturday, half and full marathon on Sunday, concerts, beer, irish stew all in a big tent on the beach at the end. I've got nothing to complain about other than the wind later in the day but I guess they can't plan everything :)

  • Comments: It was great to do something I never had before. I had to push myself and I love that. The older I get and the more races I do, I am convinced I am an endurance athlete. I can keep the same pace whether I am doing a 5k or running 13 miles. I also loved doing the race with Doug. He helped so much with my training, running advice, and keeping me smiling. I can't wait to do another one!

  • Comments: nice, flat course, great freebies, beautiful medal, great post-race activities... bads? poor expo, low crowd support for the half marathon (although it was an unsually cold day..so this might not always be so), and the course is not very scenic (it gets nice n pretty towards the very very end...last mile)

  • Comments: The race was great, very well organized, plenty of volunteers. The water stopped were perfectly timed for me, spread out just far enough but not too far. I was happy with my decision not to carry hydration with me because what they had on the course worked perfectly.
