Review

Besides being a PR and BQ for me, I really enjoyed the race. The pacer was great, the support was really good. We did social distance at the start and finish. The swag was good. The course is flat and fast. I would recommend

Race Tips

The pacers were right on. My group and my friends group 15 minutes slower. Flat somewhat scenic. No need to hurry on race day, lots of close parking.

Logistical Tips (Hotels, Restaurants, Parking, Discounts, etc.)

Hotel was nice and affordable. Good eats at a couple of restaurants.

Review

It is a small marathon with good support for the half, but not so much for the full.

Race Tips

There are a couple decent hills and the winds can pick up pretty quickly.

Logistical Tips (Hotels, Restaurants, Parking, Discounts, etc.)

Hotels are close to the start line/finish line. Lots of parking on side streets. There are burgers at the end of the race.
