  • Comments: I did the half in 2011 and just like then the race was very well organized and very well staffed. Post race was great, too. The finisher's chute has plenty of space to cheer people on. The course is awesome and the atmosphere is cool. I'll probably do it again next year, too. And it might even be the full.

  • Comments: I love, love, love the MS Blues Marathon/Half Marathon. The course is great, the people are great, the music is great, the food is good. Pre and post race include tons of bands and then there's a pub crawl that night. If anyone is looking for a winter marathon or half, somewhere different, I can't recommend this race more highly.

  • Comments: This was my first Half Marathon, so I do not have much to base this on, but this race was awesome, between the people, the bands set up along the course and just the general atmosphere it was awesome. The course is brutal, there is no lying about that, but its fun and challenging.
