Overall I liked this marathon, but there could be a few minor changes that would make it better. My likes include the violin accompaniment for the national anthem before the start, the scenery which included a stretch along the Mad River with small waterfalls (rapids), and the electronic timing which included a display that told you how many laps you completed. This is a relatively new marathon, so I’m sure the race director will make the needed improvements which include an elevation profile on the marathon website, as several runners were surprised at the amount of hills on the course, and a nicer medal design. Overall, I enjoyed the marathon even though we ran under rain and clouds from the remnants of tropical storm Bonnie.
