• Comments: Overall, a well-organized race with great crowds along the entire course and lots of enthusiastic volunteers. The only thing that would keep me from running the Pig is another race in some exotic location I haven't seen, and a means to get there.

• Comments: This was a challenging course, but I felt prepared for the hills so I ranked it "just right". I would highly recommend adding some hill training if you are interested in this race. It seemed like there was a water/gatorade station around every turn with plenty of volunteers. Crowd support was good, but rain probably kept many away. Police did a nice job with the road closures. Oh and the race swag is at the top end of the scale from my experience (killer medal, poster, backpack, recovery food). I highly recommend this one.
