  • Comments: This was a fun race. It was tough but enjoyable. I'm sure it's hard to put on an event in Key West in terms of logistics, you can't really close off many sections of road or walks. Plenty of support throughout, well organized. Highly recommended. Would love to do next year's but they moved it back a week to New Year's weekend, so due to work I won't be able to make it.

  • Comments: MY perception of the race was that the organizers had a hard time getting permits. The proposed course seemed to change over the months prior to the race mostly effecting the run. The side walks were OK near Higgs beach were they were very wide. The last 4 or so miles was run on typical 3 foot wide sidewalks that were not closed to pedestrians. The water sponser provided what had to be the worst water I have ever tasted, The 4 people I went to the race with all agreed it tasted like bacon. It felt good poured over the head though. If the weather had been nice I could see this being a great destination race. If the weather is typically bad in January I dont think I would race this one again. Oh I would train harder too.
