• Comments: Crowd support in the race is great! Lots of spectators throughout, even this year in the rain. Yes it's crowded and a little crazy, but it makes it kind of fun to be a part of the chaos.

• Comments: I love this race. This is the 2nd time I've done it and it has been awesome both times. It's a little crowded (25000-30000 registrants), but other than the first mile, the crowd actually helps me run better.

• Comments: I love this race, can't explain why since it is so crowded but it is a fun race and the city of RIchmond really turns out to encourage the participants. The first time I did it was brutally hot and people who lived along the route were hosing down runners to help them cool off so you know folks love this race around here...
