I live in a very flat mid Atlantic area so the hills I was concerned! It turned out I should’ve been concerned about the weather! It wasn’t just rain. It was a monsoon. It wasn’t just a monsoon. It was lightning and thunder. I had flown into the city for this race so I was invested, however I do wonder if the race organizers just got lucky. Don’t get me wrong, I thought this race was fantastic. Even though the conditions were miserable, everyone was in a great mood, including volunteers, law enforcement, and other runners. Running across that metal bridge and seeing lightning in the sky. Made me rethink my decisions lol.

This is the most well supported race I’ve ever done. I would highly recommend it.

Stayed on site at the Canaan Valley, Resort and conference center. It is very convenient as the race starts and ends just steps from the hotel doors. The entire race is run on the property which is also a West Virginia state park. Most of it is run on the golf course. This course features some serious hills and two loops. I’m not the biggest fan of loops but overall it was good. The weather however, was not cooperative. 85 and beautiful yesterday but today 52° on the start and by mile 5 1/2 it was raining and sleeting. Cute metal somewhat underwhelming, but kind of matches the wildness of West Virginia. It’s made of pottery.

Military races are amazing and the 2nd in Person race of Coast Guard is no exception! Laid back vibe. Fabulous race announcer – Fitz Kohler is fabulous! Small expo – not many vendors – unfortunately no safety pins but picked up race morning at the start. Running on base was cool! The whole town felt like they supported this effort!!

Eastern NC was WINDY! Even with the wind I got a PR! Coasties put on a great race! Highly recommend!

Signed up last minute and flew 2,000 miles for this race. Small field. Smallest race I’ve done. This was only the 2nd year for the half and the first year for the full. Only 250 running the half. Tiny bib pickup with one vendor. Low key start. Really lacking on volunteers – no one on course for turnaround etc. They advertised plenty of water stops but there was only one that you hit on way out and back. Alot of complaining from folks who didn’t bring water. If I hadn’t of carried my own I would have been really upset. Only complaint. The scenery was beautiful – Organ Mountains and A Mountain. Completely closed course.

Small race with a lot of heart! Wonderfully organized. Lovely run along the boardwalk and through the neighborhoods. Run the first part of the course with the marathoners until they veer off. Part of the course is on a gravel trail. Flags represented on the trail for all the states represented. Lots of really nice volunteers. Haven’t ever seen a better finish party! Full Buffet breakfast

My favorite half after Disney! Super low key vibe for a big race. Beautiful rolling course – lots of course support from race organizers and spectators. Downhill is seriously downhill. Husband watched someone fall and have to be carted off unconscious in ambulance. Take downhill slow. Great after party with best swag, beer and pizza.

2nd time running this race. They changed the course so instead of running down the highway it was more backroads which is alot more scenic and more protection from sun/elements. Very flat – no hills. Lots of volunteers. This was a PR for me for 5 Years.

This year started on Assateauge and ran to Ocean City Inlet. It got hot so the first half of the race I was headed for a PR until it got into mid 80’s quick. Early in year to be so hot and no warm weather training yet this year. Slowed down fast. It was a miserable run but I enjoyed it overall.

This was my first Baltimore. Pretty local to me but shocked on how hilly. One hell of a hill in beginning. Course is full of supporters which keeps it interesting. I even ran by 2 dead rats on course – eww! This year did NOT support the slow runner. Several friends ran the full and came in still within the time limits yet when they crossed the finish line they had to hunt someone down to give them their medals. Didn’t seem to support the slow runners.
