I have created a running website named www.askrunguy.com based on having run over 100 half marathons, including all fifty US states and several other countries; and several full marathons, with a goal of running all six World Major marathons. Below is a template for comments for my rating each race:
Race: Pocatello Half marathon 2012 (Pocatello, ID)
Race Type / Terrain (road, trail): paved roads from country into Pocatello
Organization (Expo, volunteers, start / finish): Good race support. Potato based
Support (fans, music on course): Nothing too remarkable or memorable. Race runs mostly in rural area
Course Scenery: Most of race is in pretty rural area
Course Difficulty: Easy, fast. Downhill for most of the half marathon
Weather / Temperature: Reasonable – warm near the end
Course location recreation (sights, things to do): Not too much exciting to do in local area
Logistics (Getting to the race site): Fly to Boise ID – drive from there
Swag (medal, t-shirt, other items for finishers): OK medal and shirt
Food and drink (on course and after finish): Food and drink on course and afterward is fine.
I provide running and racing resources for all levels of runners at www.askrunguy.com. I also share information that I believe is interesting and helpful to the running community. I encourage you to visit www.askrunguy.com
