Poland Spring Marathon Kickoff 5M

Great way to start marathon week
"Ran this in 2013 and 2014. Last year, I followed it with the NYCM the following week.
Fairly standard NYRR race -- typical packet pick-up/ race start/ corral set-up/ run through Central Park.
The difference is the vibe. Given the ""kick-off"" to marathon week, all of the runners are pretty excited.

beautiful run through the woods... followed by great beer
My first half marathon. Gorgeous New England woodland scenery. Not much of an expo or anything beforehand (at least, not in 2015) but fantastic Smuttynose beer afterwards. I might have had one or three while waiting for my wife to finish the marathon.

Amazing Race for ALL Levels
Completed the Bank of America Chicago Marathon for the 3rd straight year...and I didn't think it was possible to love this race anymore than I already do! The race is well organized from the time you register, to when you cross the finish line. It is a relatively flat course and
