K C's Staging Area

A friend recommended this race to me after they ran it last year, and I’m glad I took their advice and signed up. I enjoyed the views along the course, especially in the first half, and the hills were rolling and very manageable. The on-course support for the marathon was great – reliable water and Gatorade every two miles, well-staffed with volunteers. Even though the roads were partially open to traffic, I felt safe throughout. I was worried looking at the online map that I might get lost, but there were people telling you which way to go at each turn, so that was never a concern. Logistics were so easy from bib pickup all the way to post-race finding family. I’ll definitely be recommending this race to friends.
