No participation medal, only medals for age group podiums but you do get a nice quality shirt and the entry fee was very reasonable. The 5K course was great for a good time, slightly uphill for the first mile and gradual downhill for the remainder. I’d do this race again.

This was my first full marathon and it did not disappoint! The crowds lining the race course are the highlight. Not one mile was light on cheering support. The course is quite difficult with nearly 1000ft of climb throughout the race. I went out a little too hard and wound up cramping for the last 10 miles but I hung on for a decent finish. I’d definitely recommend this race for anyone who wants to run a big city marathon. If I had one complaint it would be the length of the walk to get from the medals out of the secure area and to meet family. It took far too long and was far too painful for someone in my state. I’ll definitely run it again!

Get there earlier than you think you need to, restroom waits were long, corral staging is a little chaotic, race finish is a minefield of dodging 5K walkers. Overall a lot of fun though.

Race expo was in a weird location and not much to it. The race route was lovely. Smaller race but the crowd was enthusiastic. The post race snacks and beer were fantastic. My watch and others confirm that the race distance was quite a bit longer than HM.
