  • Comments: Great course, great volunteers, great organization. The only glitch was that they ran out of water cups at miles 6, 8, and 10 - plenty of water and gatorade, but unless you had your own bottle for them to fill, you had to improvise. It's only the second year of this race, so I know they will fix the glitches. A beautiful course in a beautiful city - I highly recommend it and look forward to running it again!

  • Comments: see above. They had good intentions and were very excited but a little lacluster in performance. They had a band playing at the finish, shrimp and grits and beer but not much for spectators. The expo and festivites were in a tent, most of the vendors had left by the time I got done so no opportunity to purchase things. The whole race was to benefit arts in the schools and the entry fee wasnt that bad but the shirts OK and the bag wont be used by me. chrono tag on shoe instead of bib number- havent seen that in a while.
