Loved: All of the spirited volunteers at the race aid stations. Each aid station has an awesome theme, super hero, under the sea, etc. All of the volunteers decorated the street with chalk, signs and they even dressed up according to their themes. I got water from Iron Man, pretty cool.

Hated: Waiting in line for the potty for almost an hour. I was dropped off the by the busses and that's when I made my first stop at the potty. The lines were minimal and it only took about 10 minutes to get to the front of the line. However, my second trip back took more than 50 minutes. I got in line at 5:40 a.m. and was out by 6:35--five minutes after the race start. But, I wasn't alone. Tons, I mean tons, of people were waiting by the time the race had already started. Bummed, but it's not a huge deal.
