The half marathon start seemed borderline abandoned. There were no race crew to be found except two volunteers at the bag drop (which moved at least once) The announcer could only be heard at the start line. The folks lined up at the 2:10 hr pace mark couldn’t hear anything, no volunteers to pass on instructions or anything. The course itself was well marked and the finish area was well laid out. The app did not work for me, but spectators were able to track me.
Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon

Overall I really enjoyed this race – the crossing between states/across bridges was a nice distraction from the elevation changes. The first few miles were uphill, but the view of the river was great from the top.

The organizers were on top of questions and communicated well. The course along the river and over multiple bridges was beautiful. Post-race refreshments were perfectly handled. Once I finish my 50 states, this is one I will return to!
Rocky Mountain Half Marathon

Running in the mountains is no joke if you haven’t been training at altitude. This was not my fastest race for sure!
Start line, packet pickup, everything was well organized and environmentally friendly (no cups!). Race director /announcer was phenomenal. Medal and shirt were awesome!
The only thing I would change is the photography. They advertised signs for the photographers on the course. Only one had a sign. There were none at the finish line where you cross, and none post – race.
There was no real after party/events of any sort. I don’t know if that’s normal or because of covid, but most races I’ve been to usually have something going on afterwards.
