Expo - There wasn't one which was disappointing. I do have to admit that I enjoy expos. Packet pickup is at one of the many Big Peach storefronts.
The Good - The race was pretty organized. There was a mixup with portapottys at the beginning of the race by I wasn't affected as I am not a person that has to use the restroom several times before the race. A pro photographer was at the start line in order to take photos with the Hotlanta Half finish line in the navy round which was nice. There was a good amount of support on the course which is always nice. Got to love the sound of a cowbell!!! The medals are a good size and the shirts are super soft. They are not tech shirts but that didn't bother me.
The Bad - Holy hills!!!! If you are not aware Atlanta is hilly and this one ends on a hill. Make sure you have fresh legs for the finish with this one!!!! After the race I was hoping for a bigger vendor showing with options to purchase shorts, etc. which there were none.
I would run this race again in a heartbeat. It was a lot of fun.
