  • Comments: Next year my HS friend and I are talking about going to go head to head as I put up the friendly challenge, of course with her being so competitive it was a no delay "your on" so lets see where it goes! She did a 63 min run back in her mid 20's on this course and ran with her husband this year.

  • Comments: The only reason I don't give this race a rating of 5 is because they ran out of race goody bags and they ran out of lunches for the racers. We simply waited too long to go and get these things by walking to our car first. The race is a lot of fun, though. I'd do it again for sure, and just be sure I go straight to the lines to get the lunch and bag first.

  • Comments: For me, this was a glorified training run with 10,000 friends. I had a great time, would run again. A+ For those who haven't done this race, you really have to do it! There are something like 27 water stations and 30 musical acts, from garage bands to DJ's to belly dancers! The post race activities are first rate, and there's free beer. Need I say more?

  • Comments: Awesome race, lots of aid stations and voluteers, the spectators on the side definitely help you keep going at a good pace. And the after party was the best one that I have ever been too. Definitely recommend that anyone thinking about doing this race does it!
