This race is as advertised! Flat and fast!!! Not much for scenery here and definitely not much for crowd support, but this isn’t a marathon where you should go in expecting these things. This is the course you run as a last minute gasp to qualify for Boston or to simply get a PR in a marathon.

The weather can be unpredictable as any race in the north east can say. But all in all it’s a good course that will give you a fast time.

The expo is pretty decent too. However, the post race events are scarce and quite boring. Don’t expect the world when it comes to this because you won’t get it.
