  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Logistically this is a great race; excellent support, food, etc. But the course could be a lot better and they have to mark the miles a lot more effectively. I also think that with 5000 registered runners its probably a good idea to try some kind of seeding system. To be fair, however, since they shifted to an 8K they have seemed to gear this race more and more to the "fun run" end of the spectrum (hence, I suppose, the crappy course design) and that's fair enough. It's still a great kick-off event for the start of the season.
