Angela 's thoughts:
You can read a more detailed review of my experience on my blog: http://cowgirlruns.com/minneapolis-marathon-recap/
Pros:
- the race was extremely well supported
- aid stations and volunteers were fantastic
- finishers jacket for marathoners
- amazing scenery
- very well organized
- lots of food at the finish
Cons:
- race website difficult to navigate
- original elevation chart didn't adequately show the significant elevation changes in the race
- last 6ish miles are uphill, mostly gradual, but still very difficult
The organization and the scenery makes me want to recommend this race, but hills were unexpected and very difficult. The hills didn't start until about mile 12, so this would be a great half marathon course.
