If you love to run around Overton Square/Mid Town while raising money for the Ronald McDonald house you have to do this race. The course takes you through some very nice neighborhoods around Overton Square. Afterwards have your picture taken with Ronald McDonald, Spider-Man and Batman! Well worth the money.

This was much first marathon and it was an awesome experience. The course and crowd support was top notch from beginning to end. Water and Gatorade were plentiful.
I do wish the finishers medals were a bit more elaborate for such an elite world class event. At the finish line, runners

Short version: This is literally the most poorly managed race I've ever done. I was pretty annoyed with all the hassles last year, so was on the fence about doing it again. But even though it is only a month away, they don't seem to be doing any better
