Race Reports for Asbury Park Marathon & Relay

[1]

Race rating (4)

Comments: It was a beautiful day so lots of people were out on the boardwalk. Unfortunately many of them didn't know there was a race going on and wandered and just stood in the race lane. The organizers did have cones set up and as long as you paid attention it wasn't a problem. The roads were not closed but a large running area was separated with cones and there were many cops around stopping traffic at the cross streets. Good signage and clear mile markers. Since it was a relay there were a lot of people around waiting for their turn to run. They were cheering and being very supportive. I've never done a half or full marathon before; only 5K's so I don't really have much to compare it to but I thought for the price; it was good. Not much going on at the finish line. You could grab a banana, bagel and water. But we finished pretty late and didn't go to the afterparty at Wonderbar.
