Overall, the event was organized and run very well. The route covered some of Oakland’s better highlights, but as another runner mentioned, it was actually short of a half marathon distance by a quarter mile or so. My GPS tracked 12.9 while my friend’s tracked 12.8. I don’t think it’s an instance of GPC inaccuracy, either.
I actually followed the race course very closely on a training run a couple of weeks prior and finished right around 13.1. The only different I noticed between the actual race course and my training run was the placement of the last turnaround on Telegraph Ave. – it should have gone all the way down to Latham Square, but was a couple blocks shy of that instead.
The brewfest at the end was a nice addition, although the website could have provided a little more detail on what to expect, timing, etc.
