Davy Crockett Bear Chase Marathon Reviews

  

By JM about 2012

Review

Small, rural, mixed surface dirt, gravel, asphalt roads. Rolling, gentle hills. Starts and ends in small HS stadium, parking very close. Great tune up event, great for first timers, NO CROWDS!!

Low cost, but no medal if you're a hardware collector. However as the saying goes "Pain is temporary, finishing times posted on the internet are forever!"

Race Tips

As a small marathon there aid stations are further apart so Carrying your own drink is recommended, aid stations only every 2 +/-miles. Easy access and great help to get refills, but you'll want to keep a bottle or pack with you, especially if running full marathon and weather is normal (warm & humid) for finish

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

It's a small crowd, parking is guided by volunteers and local FD. There is no bad parking, nothing is more that a couple hundred yards from the start finish!!!!
