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

This race was well put together and helps a great cause to get youth up and running. Course was pretty and downhill for a fast time. Good aid stations, plenty of restrooms, fun trivia along the way to keep you entertained and super fun to see people dressed in

The swimming portion runs parallel to the beach and the waves are typically small so early in the morning.
The bike portion has a beautiful 11.1 mile course along the Lake Minnewaska and beautiful views and the run is 2.5 miles
out and back along the Lake and finishes by a soccer field.
