"Fun run through Prospect Park. Nice scenery in the park with the fall colors -- lots of energy along the race. Rock 'n' Roll series is always fun with the bands along the course.

Looping the park is a bit boring, but the race was run well, and

Easy to get there, easy to manage. Great crowds but also plenty of quiet stretches. Great medals. Great array of food at the finish including coffee cups of chicken broth, much appreciated on a cold, windy day. I could come to Philly and do this race every year.

Letas face it, there is nothing else like this! Start in Muskegon and run by sandy beaches on the Great Lakes, awesome late summer temps - warm in the afternoon and cool at night, quaint lakeside towns, beautiful woodland roads and farm country, and a fantastic party awaits you in Traverse
