  • Comments: The 15-minute start delay was a drag. And I prefer running from Issy to Redmond vs. Redmond to Issy. Wish we could run a bigger loop around Marymoor or Lake Samm Park instead of Disneyland-snake-line to add distance. Still, I'd run it again as it's in my back yard and a nice race.

  • Comments: Great race and the organization was excellent. Aid stations may have been a little sparse (I didn't use them, but I suppose some could've used another one appropriately spaced). As mentioned before, the out-and-back section was a killer, but I don't see an easy way around that since there aren't that many opportunities to add distance.

  • Comments: I might re-think that last portion of the race. It's pretty tough mentally and physically at the end of a race.

  • Comments: It's been fun watching this race grow year by year! My friend is the RD and I am really proud of the work he has done to make it a top-notch event. I'll definitely keep doing it. It's great to have an early season half marathon on the books!
