Comments: This is a California classic. The bike course, which you can really only do during a race unless you're military, is legit and IMO one of the best I've done. Marines are always superb volunteers as well. Even though I say every year "it's too early," I'm always tempted to sign up again.
Comments: Here are the results.
The vols were especially great this year, and there were a lot of them. There were a ton of young Marines in vol shirts on the run, at sign-in and elsewhere, and it was flattering to keep getting called, Sir, by so many young superstars.
