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: Gobbler Grind half Marathon Overland Park, KS 2009
Race Type / Terrain (road, trail): paved roads around Overland Park, KS
Organization (Size, Expo, volunteers, start / finish): Medium sized, good organization.
Support (fans, music on course): Good fan and band support on the course
Course Scenery: Typical race scenery through suburban KC areas.
Course Difficulty: a bit hilly but manageable
Weather / Temperature: nice weather in the fall – a Thanksgiving weekend race
Course location recreation (sights, things to do): Some fun things to do in KC, especially good food (BBQ)
Logistics (Getting to the race site): Easy access via KC airport
Swag (medal, t-shirt, other items for finishers): Shirt and medal were decent, average
Food and drink (on course and after finish): Decent food and drink on course and after race.

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
