Course was very flat and easy and even though you run near the beach the constant stream of hotels and condos blocks pretty much any view of the water. Production was good but simple with bare minimum of swag. Small race group for the half ~200 people. Post race was good with food, beer and live music. You can make a good weekend out of surrounding area

Although it was raining, the temperatures were great. A bit windy, but a nice run next to the Gulf. Very enjoyable and the after party was inside. Food and drinks all around. Great food after the race and fun getting together with other runners.

This was a very small race with little communication prior to the event. I could not find any information regarding the course other than what was used in the city permit. No mention of aid stations or porta-potties on the course. The course was flat and fast although I had not trained for it. The last mile of the course was not visibly marked. The medal was nice even though no mention of the event date.
