    Packet pickup was a breeze and a fairly decent size. Pre-paid $10 bucks for parking and no one even checked to see if anyone paid on race morning, so that was a rip off. The course was very scenic with some rolling hills and one fairly steep hill. The finish line party was pretty good with Firestone Walker beer. The t-shirt and medal need some serious work. Shirt was cotton and the medal was very uninspiring.

    The course itself was overall good, Cliff drive just happens at the wrong time in the run (Approx. at the 10-11 mile mark). The last mile is terrific with the flags handed out by at least one Military officer. Beautiful weather and aid stations were excellent.

    It was a party running with so many people and there are plenty of spectators to cheer you on and make it interesting. The course only has one big hill and the scenery changes a lot.
