The marathon is essentially 2 loops of the half, though a few miles (13-16 I think) are different. There are several sections of boardwalk which can be windy and tight, so it certainly will slow you down if you’re a fast runner (about 7 min/mi is about as fast as you can safely or easily run if there is anyone else near you on these sections). That said, I have run this race every year since inception in 2014, and I plan to conintue to do so. It was also my first Boston Qualifier, and it tends to be a good course for BQ because it’s so flat and typically great weather. 2014-2017 brought 40-60 degrees on race day; 2018 had 65-72 degrees with some nasty humidity. The pre-race swag, medal, and post-race party certainly compete with all other local races, and I’d 100% recommend this event if you’re choosing between Celebration and The Mouse!
