  • Comments: Really great -- I would do this again. Everything was quite clear, volunteers were fantastic. Despite the potential confusion from having marathon / half marathon / 10k / 5K sharing the course, I never felt confused about where to go. Finishers medal was really hefty -- a bit heavy around the neck, but I earned it :-) Great job organizers! Looking forward to the 50th running next year.

  • Comments: I'm pissed about the timing so far - they switched to a new timing company and they are only sorting by Gun time. I know all about the awards and such but for the average 2000+ users, chip time is what matters. I think a lot of their chips got messed up as there's a ton of bad/obviously wrong readings. Anything that encourages bad seeding at the front is a bad thing for racing!

  • Comments: Great morning for a run! The weather could not have been better. It was a great vibe at the race and well organized. It started right at 7:00 am...not 1 second late.
