Interesting sights along the course. Not enough support for the back of the pack. Start was disorganized. There weren't enough buses to ferry runners to the start area.

Nice course. Last shuttle bus got to the race late.

This was a nice city-and-country race, in a drizzle- perfect racing conditions. It had rolling small hills, but mostly flat with a sweet downhill trend the last 3 miles. It went thru industrial neighboorhoods, then along river park, into classy residential neighboorhoods, and finished to well-supporting crowds in downtown, complete with cobblestone streets.

Considering this was the inaugural race, I thought it was well organized. Mile markers, plenty of helpful volunteers, and great post-race food/refreshments. Very up-and-down hilly, including a killer hill from mile 8 to 9.
