Excellent course by far. One of my favorite. Professionally done. Only bad thing is the awards are awarded to 10 year age spans rather than 5 years which is a mistake.

This is a great race and well-executed marathon. There are three distances available, but I liked that all the distances started at the same time and we could run together for a while. This wasn't a huge race, and I liked the personal feel and the course was along a river

Great race in Alexandria and the trophies are no joke. Bobbleheads are awesome and super geeky. Course was nice and flat and everything was well run. Fun time!
