  • Comments: This was my first 1/2 marathon. I had a friend that has done it so that helped with getting were I needed to be and the warm up. I was shocked at my time at the end. I was hoping for 2 hours and I killed that goal by 18 min. I ran 15 sec. faster than what I had expected. I never thought that I would have done so well for my first time running a 1/2 Marathon. I will be doing more of them in the near future.

  • Comments: This was the best first half I could have asked for. I loved the course, volunteers, spectators, aid, and food. Could have used some more potties on the course. And the weather was beautiful, it warmed up to 55.
