  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: First - BEST RACE MEDAL EVER - its a big squarish enamelled medal that doubles as a bottle opener! Way cool. They need to recruit more volunteers and get a few more water stations, a few more announcements about whats available at the finish and some more volunteers to help the registration go smoother. Next year I'll get the wife to volunteer which usually means I help out too.

  • Comments: Wouldn't mind doing this race again. I might have been overwhelemd by a bigger race. This seemed just right in terms of number of participants. It was also well organized and nice to run along the beach on the boardwalk.

  • Comments: I was a little disappointed with a few things about this race. First, they said they would have gels on the course - they did not. Also, there were only 2 bathrooms on the course. I really thought they should have had maybe one or two more especially in the first half. Oh, and I specifically asked the gear check people if our bags would be watched the entire time because they were being left kind of in an open area. She assured me they would be; HOWEVER, when my sister and I went to pick up our bags they were sitting on a table with a bunch of others - just sitting there - unattended. There was some guy putting chairs away and we asked him if he was the gear check security and he looked at us with this dumb look on his face. Now, I didn't have anything valuable in there (that would be silly); however, I think my stuff in general is valuable to me. We just took our bags and told the chair guy that we were taking our bags. He, of course, did not care. The post race food was good.
