  • Comments: Plenty of volunteers and good crowd support through most of the race. Some of the water stations couldn't keep up with the number of runners though. It was a little warmer than expected so that probably didn't help.

  • Comments: They did get started a few minutes late, but I'm not going to count off too much since it gave me one extra trip to the porta-john. Overall, very happy with this race. It was my first half-marathon and the first time I'd ever run 13 miles in one sitting. The crowds and volunteers were awesome - and meeting up with my high school buddies I hadn't seen in 20 years made the whole weekend awesome.

  • Comments: The race is very well done (more port-a-pottys and a wider race start next year please). The volunteers were very helpful and pleasant. I made sure to thank many of them.

  • Comments: PR by 4:45- one of the best efforts I have ever had in a race. I really had low expectations going into this race with limited run training due to injury, but I think the rest going in may have been helpful. Also I drank a bit too much partying Friday night and was still a little under the weather this morning- felt fine once I got going though. This was the first big race I have been in, and it was AWESOME. Quite the spectacle seeing 17k people lined up to race. Really a great atmosphere and will definitely be back next year. One other note: I still SUCK at drinking on the run.
