I thought the race was beautiful and extremely well run. There was tons of aid on the run course which helped a lot on the hot day. A choice of local wine or beer growlers made the awards worth aiming for!
Challenges include one rough mile or so on a bike path

For a world marathon and after running other world marathons, i expected better logistics, communications and planning. Not enough time between corralls, expo oddly laid and lack of communication for what to do and where to go before hand. Not enough nutrition, ran out before half of the participants came through

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.
