Guy Collins's thoughts:

I have created a running website named www.askrunguy.com based on having run over 100 half marathons, including all fifty US states and several other countries; and several full marathons, with a goal of running all six World Major marathons. Below is a template for comments for my rating each race:

Race: Duke City half marathon 2013 Albuquerque, NM
Race Type / Terrain (road, trail): paved roads and bike path just outside of Albuquerque
Organization (Expo, volunteers, start / finish): Expo was OK – not too memorable
Support (fans, music on course): Few fans on course due to most of it being along an out-n-back bike path
Course Scenery: Nice scenery – including hot air balloons and southwest desert landscape
Course Difficulty: Pretty easy. Very flat out and back
Weather / Temperature: Was quite warm but dry
Course location recreation (sights, things to do): Some things to do and see around Albuquerque and Santa Fe, including missions, old buildings, artwork, etc
Logistics (Getting to the race site): easy access via nearby airports
Swag (medal, t-shirt, other items for finishers): No medal, instead coin. Sort of ugly shirt
Food and drink (on course and after finish): Sufficient food and water stops.

I provide running and racing resources for all levels of runners at www.askrunguy.com. I also share information that I believe is interesting and helpful to the running community. I encourage you to visit www.askrunguy.com
