  • Comments: Well supported, lots of fun, and easy course. I will probably do it again in the future, but since it's right in the middle of a fun summer weekend, maybe not regularly, cause I would prefer drinking and tanning to sleeping off a half mary hangover.

  • Comments: It's probably unfair for me to rate post-race activities as average. There are several events that go on throughout the weekend, but, I've never participated in them. 3 times I've registered for this event. (paid, but didn't run inaugural event in 2001) and I've never gone to any of the main attraction concerts.

  • Comments: Overall the race is ok, but a little over rated seeing how there is almost no after party (only 1 beer and no food) you do get a free entry to a concert the night of the race, but I don't really like to wait around that long.

  • Comments: My first half marathon ever and my first competitive race in about 10 years. Verry happy overall and a good learning experience. I wasn't sure if I could make the race as my oldest son got the flu the week before. He was better and nobody else got sick but had to change a lot of plans and was a bit mentally off. I should I put myself at an estimated earlier corral- cause I started way back and so many racers...Also need a better breakfast next time.

  • Comments: This was my 4th year running in this race and I am already signed up to do it again next year. Although it's a fairly large race, it's nice to make a weekend trip out of it, especially since it's on the beach. The expo is huge, there is a lot of free stuff to pick up, and the race itself is very organized. There were tons of volunteers and the post race activities are fabulous!

  • Comments: This is a very well organized race. Lot's of local support at aid stations and the bands along the way are fun. This is a pancake flat course, but the large number of participants makes for an extremely crowded course. You can't complain about a race that ends on a beach with beer.

  • Comments: Tons of fun. Logistically, they couldn't have done a better job, except maybe having the bus drivers know where they're going?? Just a thought???? Lots of volunteers, cheerleaders, good bands, medical personnel, and ice towels at the end are MONEY.

  • Comments: There was one stop near the end when they were out of cups or something like that. I was fine, but considering I finished MOP, I hope that the BOPers were well supported. Tables on both sides at all stops might also help ease some of the congestion.

  • Comments: Virginia Beach is a great race, and recommended for people looking to run a half marathon. It's very newbie friendly. It can get hot, so you may not want to expect a PR, but it really has a great "party" atmosphere.

  • Comments: RnR is a high profile race and they always do things big. My perspective as someone running up front is likely different from someone back in the masses. Although I would have liked more aid stations along the course, there was always plenty available when I hit one as well as in the finishing area. I'd imagine that once 10,000 people have already gone through there might be a little less organization and I know they have run low of things in the past. Still though, I think they do a good job with a very big event.
