The one thing that might make me skip this race in the future is the race expo location. It's a pain to get to and a pain to park plus you have to pay to park there. But once you survive that, you're on your way to a fun event. Don't think that because it's downtown San Diego it's going to be flat. Nope. This is a hilly course. But it's a well run, well supported event and a lot of fun. Plus, who doesn't like chocolate?!?
