I wanted to like this race a lot because it’s so convenient to my home, and I like the idea of running around the Middlesex Fells Reservation, but unfortunately this half marathon course changed several times in the lead up to race day and the final course was very uninspiring. Long stretches of the course are on parkways with little scenery or convenient spots for spectators to gather. It was approximately two long loops around the Spot Pond reservoir in Stoneham/Medford MA. This year, the date of the race is earlier, too. I may have signed up for it if it was in November again – – but October was too soon for me to train adequately. I really did love the T-shirt from last year, though. One of my rave race shirts, definitely! great work logo 🙂
