Event comments:

There were a lot of negative reviews of this race from the four previous years, but the course was changed this year from 2x the half marathon course (mostly on narrow multi-use path) to a single time around a large loop that incorporated the path. Generally flat and fast. Woefully undersupported, though--only 14 aid stations not all of which had water and most of which did not have enough volunteers. Decent post-race expo and handsome medal (plus track jacket and bottle of wine to all runners).
