  • Comments: Race was very organized, lots of volunteers, crowds were great, expo looked good. The only issue I had was there was less water stations than I expected and the water tasted like they took it out of the ocean.

  • Comments: Given how crappy I felt I guess I should be okay with an 11:10 pace, but I'm still frustrated with how slow my running is. Training for the Providence Marathon I'm not sure that it's going to get much faster, but perhaps after that I can focus on going faster instead of going further.

  • Comments: I had a great time. The course was nice and flat and seemed well organized. My only thing was there were not enough toilets and pretty much no port a johns on the route- that kind of stinks for the ladies.

  • Comments: February weather can be very iffy on the Cape but thankfully the heavier rain held off until after I was done. It must have been miserable for the slower marathoners. I would have prefered snow to rain.

  • Comments: My garmin forerunner 50 (Footpod) had the distance at 13.35. A few others I knew with Garmin GPS watches the race at 13.25 and 13.28, so it is possible the distances were slightly off.
