Delicious idea! There was so much chocolate fondue in the finishers area - I felt like I was going to get sick. Bananas, pretzels, rice krispie treats, marshmallows- all in a plastic cup with chocolate fondue. The cup was cheap and plastic, and ended up in the trash, so my only race complaint is the amount of landfill they created.
The fleece hoodies are really nice, and I wear mine on cold morning runs. Great swag!
The weather was perfect! It could have been cold and miserable, but we lucked out with great sun and no wind along the highway. It was so nice to watch the huge waves crash on the surf.
I was worried about the logistics of the shuttles since the race was in San Francisco, but it went so smoothly, it was super easy to get to.
The last two miles were uphill so it was a nice challenge to finish strong - great course!
