    I did this event last year and I have already signed up for 2023. It’s a good flat & fast course. Not much for post-party or food but they give away a good medal and since I placed 1st in my age division, I also received a nice trophy.
    The shirt was also very nice.
    The timing is good and the course is through the woods which is nice.
    Not a big race but it is growing.

    This marathon is an out and back course along a mostly paved walking trail that runs parallel to the sun coast parkway. I think the trail is the sun coast trail. It’s a flat, fast course. This was my first marathon to finish and I really enjoyed it. The weather was great for early January. The race director and his wife are super nice and helpful.

    The long sleeve shirt was the best I have gotten. Right up there with Hot Chocolate jacket. Medal was good, as was the placement medals.
    Good things:
    1. Race was timed to the nano second. Perfect Chip Timing!
    2. Treatment and respect given to the runners by the race director and his staff was excellent. I asked him some questions and he was there with a smile on his face and answered all questions.
    3. Course was out and back and well marked.
    4. Water station at the half way mark.
    5. Flat & Fast course. So good, I signed up the next say on runningintheusa.com for 2022 race next year.
    6. Good snacks at the end which included drinks and water.

    Bad Things: Absolutely nothing!

    I wish more timing companies cared about runners as much as these guys did, Good job guys.

    Extremely poorly supported race which resulted in dangerous conditions for runners. There are many better races to participate in, avoid this one! MORE
