Parking was more difficult than I expected and the course was SO hilly. I hear they have reversed it for the 2016 year, so that could be good. Otherwise food after was great and medal and shirt were cool.

"Tips and Notes:
- you don't need to get there as early as they say
- mentally challenging to pass the halfway mark with others finishing - as with almost all half/full marathon races
- good crowd support in the beginning, a bit less on the second half
- work in hill training - not

The course for the half wasn't bad at all, there were so many supporters on the side of the road - I truly enjoyed this race! It was extremely hot in Cleveland that morning which was the only downside. Other than that, everything was very well put together and organized. Definitely
