  • Comments: I think this was a great event. I had never done a 1/2 and had never been a part of a race this big, but I thought it went very well. There was a lot of parking, a lot of shuttles and a lot of volunteers. Overall I think it was very organized for what could have been chaos!

  • Comments: Two things you should do in a race they say. I took care of it. 1) Negative split -- best thing is to take a porta potty in the first half! 2) Pass people - easy way is to insert about 500 people doing a 5k walk at the end of the race. It was fairly tight for the last mile as the walkers in the 5k converged with us. Felt like I was playing pachinko as I weaved back and forth trying to avoid people.
