Sarah Décarpentrie's thoughts:

This is a good race put on by the Marines. If you run it, you're given entry to the Marine Corps Marathon and don't have to enter the lottery. This race sells out very quickly though.

The tshirts were a puke green and not very pretty, but the race medals were in the shape of an arrowhead -- very cool! The race is mainly on trails throughout the military base, and it gets easily jammed at the beginning, but thins out. The Marines do a really good job making everything go smoothly, including parking and shuttles to and from the race/parking. The race is quite hilly, especially between miles 4 and 5. Because it's in the military base, there are very few spectators.

Overall a good race -- I'd recommend it!
