There are wonderful organizers who are super welcoming to all the out of towners. There are also an abundance of aid stations, although there was a bit of a gap between say mile 10 and 16 – that was tough in the high humidity.

It is also a very hilly course, particularly the first half which goes gently up for several miles and then gets steep, before going back down around mile 7. Not for the faint of heart.

Lots of character – the Hatfield and McCoy legend is a big part of the local show – its interesting but kind of strange to have such a terrible feud be your big tourist attraction! Great, friendly people though

If I imagined what the perfect marathon course for me would be, this is it. Slightly descending, covered on a wide trail with a canopy of trees, the river just below, in 65 degree weather.

I did not do well because I am running too many marathons consecutively, but if I wanted to PR, I would take time off and prep for this one.

Perfect.

I am trying to run a marathon in all 50 states and so was not sure what to expect from this race in Alabama – what a hidden gem! It is a flat course (a few slight hills) and it is almost all through a nice wide bike trail in the woods. The temperature was perfect and the aid stations were plentiful.

If you were hoping to qualify for Boston, this would be a great race to consider.

They also had some of the best marathon signs up – such as – “if marathons were easy, they’d be named after your mother!” (hello!) and “Pain is just French for bread”…

Super pleasantly surprised, highly, highly recommend!

As advertised – no T-shirt, no frills – it would be good to have a chip I think though to keep everyone honest. Perhaps a person at the turn-around as well.

Race Directors are incredibly nice.
