Jim 's thoughts:
Pros:
• Gorgeous, scenic race, with parts of course through Brandywine Park, and the waterfront along the Christina River. Also, very pretty treelined streets of the Highlands and Wawaset Park area of Wilmington!
• Really nice, big bling, with lots of pretty colors!
• Great swag... not only do you get a shirt, but you also get a hat and a pint glass!
• Awesome post-race festival at Tubman-Garrett Waterfront Park... with champagne! And water ice! And great food!
• Allows for race-day pickup
Cons:
• Only particular to this year's race, and it's always a toss up, but weather was HOT and MUGGY.
• Not too much spectator support for large parts of the course - spectators are mainly just at the park which marks the start/finish of the course
• Timing of the race may conflict with family plans, as it is largely held on Mother's Day each year.
