HF#12335 This was a super flat, fast course. The parts along the beach (boardwalk) were beautiful. Being out early before it got too hot was nice. The post race food was great, and free-bonus! I didn't go to the expo beforehand but it was still going on when we were done and it was great. So many vendors! There were tons of photographers along the route and the pictures were free! You get a lot for your $35 and it benefits Special Olympics-win, win:)
