The shirts! The participant and finisher shirts for this race were SO awesome. Loved the swag! The course is a little challenging with some decent climbs, but nothing crazy on the half. I hear the full and ultra are tougher. It was easy to get in and out of the venue, the support was good, the sites were pretty cool. I got no complaints about this race. Also, the post-race amenities were well organized. the only complaint is that the half marathon finishes too early for beer on a Sunday. We had to wait a while, but that's not the race's fault.
