Bands, music on course, plenty of color and water and post race refreshments. Chip timed for those that want to know how long they lasted

I really enjoyed the race, Iam glad that runners were released in waves because it made the traffic less congested. The one thing I wish was that if you are a walker to wait for the walking race. It makes it difficult to maneuver around the walkers while running. I liked

What's not to love. From the start, the Marines, the moving and touching Blue Mile, Spectators by the hundred, Signs by the thousand. A memorable race for sure. Looking forward to next year and many more after that.
