Appalachian Series was our First Mainly Marathons and they Exceeded Expectations – West Virginia and Virginia are the same course – you can count for one State – Directors, Food/Snacks, Bling the other Runners are all Amazing and Very Supportive – Logistics for Hotels, Rental Car and Flights is all you have to worry about – Hotels listed: Georgia LaQuinta Inn by Wyndham Macon, South Carolina – Best Western Seneca-Clemson, North Carolina – Fairfield Inn and Suites Asheville Airport, Quality Hotel Bluefield VA (don’t have high expectations but it was the only one close to start) All our Hotels had Free Breakfast, Available Laundry (which was a plus for dirty running clothes)

Overall Rating: It was pretty standard for a Mainly Marathons run. Definitely nice to be able to save a trip to Virginia.
Course Difficulty: Nearly constant hills with this 12 loop course.
Course Scenery: Nice park with fall scenery.
Race Production: It was good. Early start was nice…no frills check in.
Race Swag: Fine, nothing extremely great or terrible.
My Performance: So-So. First run of a double weekend, so I took it easy and made time to visit with some friends.
Loops aren’t my preferred races, but I’m glad they are there as an option. The Mainly Marathon folks do a great job.
