  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?No

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: I thought the food was pretty crummy (and very parsimoniously distributed -- you really can't spare a banana or two for spectators?!?!?!). Also, I heard a lot of horror stories about the parking shuttles, so I was very glad to have gotten there early and gotten parking near the beach. Could have used at least one more water stop. Other than all that, though, had a blast. Very supportive vibe.

  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Good
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The race itself was EXTREMELY well run. The volunteers were amzing, great expo, great swag, great post race activities. DJ's at every aid station and lots of them on the course. You never felt alone out there. The shuttle situation left a lot to be desiered, and I imagine the race organizers will either work closely with that company, or another, next year to improve that. Overall I highly reccomend this race to anyone in the area looking for a great women's half. Just do your hill training, those bridges (espeically the last one around mile 11) are no joke.
