Pros:
1. The scenery is beautiful.
2.. Aid stations were plentiful and volunteers were awesome.
Cons:
1. Race Production. So for this race you have to ride a bus up the course. A UPS truck that was supposed to serve as the gear-check was running super late. So the organizers had to improvise until the truck finally made it.
2. I am a turtle runner. When I hit mile 20, I was approached by a man saying I was 5 minutes late to the check point and I may not get a medal and an official finish time. I FREAKED OUT! They said “we will keep the finish line open as long as possible, but….you may not finish.” Now, I initially thought I missed something on the website about this checkpoint, but after searching the website I did not find a single thing about this. This was my 7th Marathon, so I am familiar with these type of check points and I alter my running/walking to account for them. Not making the checkpoint system blatantly clear is a huge mistake. I came all the way from New York to run this race and it was extremely stressful to be told I may not get a medal and an official finish line when I only had 6.2 miles to go.
