This race was extremely inspiring to run. I loved every moment of it. Everything was well organized. The packet pickup was a breeze. The race expo was a bit crowded, but the race itself was perfect. The course had great cheering crowds almost the entire route, the marines at every mile

I partipated as a runner and left as a friend. No matter the level or intensity of your approach to the race, you will find encouragement and motivation. A well coordinated race and great people.

Due to confusion about the course, this race was a complete disaster. Runners being sent down the wrong streets, backtracking, running into others going the wrong way...could they have screwed it up any more? Most of the 5K runners ended up running about 2.3 miles, that is, if they didn't fall
