I was really looking forward to this race because of the beautiful scenery of Longview Lake. The race was along a highway and we didn't get to see much of the lake. There was a giant hill right after the first mile...and I ended up walking most of it so I didn't kill my legs. There were a couple miles that were along a trail and those views were good :) Due to the route being on a divided highway, there was little crowd support to break up the miles...much needed for a half marathon. The views over the bridge were amazing and I wish more of the race was along the paths and trails than the highway. There was more to be desired with the aid stations...but in the cooler months, less is okay. The finishers area was nice with milk, chicken noodle soup, and massages. I was glad to get my sweatpants and warm up in the car before heading out.
