Great race! Lots of fun! Packet pickup a little unorganized and start was too congested for too long. Other than that it was fantastic. I plan to do it again.

Great Race!

Loved being able to run a half marathon on thanksgiving! I didn't care so much for the last couple miles of the course though...those hills killed me lol I'll be better prepared for them this year though! I loved all the "thankful" messages along the route, they really helped the time pass and were motivating and inspirational. I absolutely LOVED the military involvement!! It was so great being able to run along side our service men and women and thank them for their service.

FUN!

The best thing about this race is the course. You don't have to worry about you or your kid getting hit by traffic. I can let my kids run out ahead of me and know that they will be fine. 2013 was better because there were less people but word has gotten out on what a great race this is.
