on a very familiar course. I’ve done this several times now & I needed a quick one before my 100th. Easy course, ok course support & very few spectators. But I just needed another one and this served the purpose.
Nice race with no hills but upgrades
The course changed last minute due to road construction so it cancelled out a hilly section. But that plus nice weather and good course support made for an enjoyable race. … MORE
The course changed last minute due to road construction so it cancelled out a hilly section. But that plus nice weather and good course support made for an enjoyable race. It’s a small race and despite running in a suburb, it gets rather lonely. But if you’re looking for an easy half, try this one.
New course, more hills...

whish isn’d bad if you are expecting it. Strong headwind caused problems for some. Under new management, the race suffers from lack of attention to details. Poor portapotties placement and number throughout course. Aid stations were not well staffed. Swag was poor, but I’m not into that anymore. But still, was able to knock out half #84.
Good, well organized race

Very efficient race and production. I’ve run this for several years & am very familiar with it. Germantown is hillier than one would think. Slight course changes this year. Plus great weather for a change too. Long sleeve hoodie-like shirt, not my thing, so I gave away. Plus medals didn’t come it on time. No big deal. My bling ends up in a box in the attic anyway.
Gtown Half doesn't disappoint

I’m so familiar with this course I could probably run it with my eyes close. It is a rolling hills course & it’ll bite you late if you don’t plan out your run. Depending on the wx, the crowds are good, but if it’s chilly, very few. Organizers are top notch too. Nice swag. Good for a PR.
This is a fun race
This was a local race for me, my 5th time doing it. The course is a little hilly. But the weather was good today, nice overcast. Fun race to do! MORE
