Fort Lauderdale A1A Marathon & Half Marathon
Nice new course!

This was my 3rd year in a row doing this half marathon. 20th year anniversary. They changed the course back to the pre-2020 course. Excellent choice! The new course was so nice. Running through downtown to Las Olas, to the beach, to Hugh Taylor Birch state park, back to the beach. I loved it! The ocean views are the best! It was an early start and once the sun came up, it got hot. The only shade was the state park. It was hot and humid this year, so my time was not my best, but I enjoyed the race very much. I was disappointed in the Expo this year. It seemed much smaller this year than in previous years, some vendors didn’t even show up. The parking at the convention center on Friday evening was a nightmare. It took over an hour to get out of the garage after I got in my car. On race day, I parked at the beach and took the shuttle/bus to the start line. You had a choice to either park at the start or the finish and take the shuttle. The shuttle was open to family and friends of racers as well. Nicely executed and the over all production was great. I will definitely run this again!

This was my first Full Marathon and it did not disappoint! I’ll start with the Expo. I paid for the VIP experience, so I bypassed the line to get my bib and swag bag. The lines were very long and seemed confusing to the Non-VIP. The Expo was good. Got some freebies. The race! I took the Brightline train from Fort Lauderdale (special early train) and it got me into downtown at 5am. Perfect! I walked .5 miles to the race area where I found my corral. Since I did the VIP, I was placed in corral B. I am slow and I would have been almost at the end, but I wanted the early start because I wanted to enjoy the after race festivities before they started to clean up and that would have happened if I started later. The race started exactly on time and I believe it took almost a full hour to get all the corrals over the start line. The half had over 15,000 people and the full had only 3,000, so the first half of the race was crowed. Since I was slow and in a fast corral, I got over to the right so others could pass me on the left. I was always about 6” to 18” from the right side and people still had to pass me on the right. I did not understand that at all. There was 20 feet or more to my left. Once the half and full split, it got very nice. People were spread out and no one was trying to pass me on the right anymore. The course is amazing! Water views, city views, bridges, beautiful homes, the list goes on. The water stations were every mile and well stocked. There was also bathrooms and medical every mile. The course is super easy to follow and the city does an amazing job. Even the police were cheering on the runners. The crowed support was great in some areas and not existent in others, but over all good crowd support. Watch that hill (bridge) at mile 25! LOL. I loved when I crossed the finish line, my name was announced. I’m not sure if that was because I was a marathoner or because I did VIP, but that was great. Overall Miami does it right and it was a great race and a great production. I not sure I would do it again because I like smaller races and it was very hot and humid, but I still loved every minute.

This was my second year doing the 10K and the rest of my family did the 5K. Overall, this is a great family fun event! The packet pick up is at a local run shop. No real swag (just some coupons) and they had an issue with the shirts this year and my daughter didn’t get one. They said they would call me when they got them in. After the race, they were giving all the leftover shirts away and my daughter saw that and went over and got one. But if she didn’t just go get one, they would have never called and she won’t have gotten a shirt. The production is well run. Good aid stations and bathrooms. Running through the zoo before it opens is cool. The 10K runs in the zoo and then around the zoo. The second half of the 10K was boring and partly in the parking lot. The after party is fun. Lots of giveaways and food. All runners/walkers get free admission to the zoo once it opens. Overall a nice race! After having done it twice, I think I done with this race.
