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: Hartford Half Marathon 2010 Hartford, CT
Race Type / Terrain (road, trail): paved roads around Hartford, CT
Organization (Size, Expo, volunteers, start / finish): Fairly large sized, good organization.
Support (fans, music on course): Good fan and band support on the course and afterward
Course Scenery: Typical race scenery through suburban and urban Hartford areas.
Course Difficulty: pretty flat and easy
Weather / Temperature: nice weather in the fall, a little bit warm at the end
Course location recreation (sights, things to do): Not a lot to do in Hartford after the race
Logistics (Getting to the race site): Easy access via Hartford airport
Swag (medal, t-shirt, other items for finishers): Very nice finishers medal (no shirt?)
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
