I was going to Florida for vacation and wanted to run a half marathon. I found this one and the location and date fit. The half marathon starts at 6 AM in darkness and the first hour of the race is in the dark. It happened to be 73 with 100% humidity at the start of the race, which I think is warmer and more humid than normal. Most of the race is along 4 lane divided highways with 1 lane shut down for the race. Cars drive on either side of you. For the most part I felt safe (though I was glad not to be using headphones), there was a big police presence to direct traffic. Not much scenery, mostly subdivisions that look the same and businesses. There was one street that was through a park like setting, but it was fairly short. The course is flat as a pancake. There are plentiful water stops and friendly volunteers. There is a 5K that starts a couple hours after the half and shares the finishing area. Low res race photos are free, though there were no photographers on the course except at the finish. Finishing photos were available on the photographer’s Facebook page. No pictures of me, which is a bit disappointing. I did get a picture with the Easter bunny after the race. I had no issues with packet pickup or the race planning. There was a band at the finish party. Race swag consists of a tech tee and a medal. I am not sure how this race compares to other Florida races since it was my first one. For me, it is a decent race if you happen to be in the area.
