Stephen 's thoughts:

The race was 30 minutes late starting but this was due to a problem with one of the shuttle buses not bad planning. So far this is the best Half Marathon course that I have run. It's run on the streets and park trails. Nothing technical but it's nice that your feet get a break from the pavement. This is not a flat course but nothing crazy. Just enough to make it interesting. I did manage to PR on this course. Aid stations were plentiful but only had water and PowerAid. If you need nutrition bring your own. Crowd support was really good for a race of this size I was surprised. The finishers medal is really top notch, think that is where they spent most of the money.
The only complaints that I have is the shirt is not technical, it's a very very cheap cotton. Not a big deal, but for the cost of the race I expected better. The other one is at the finish line post race food required you to stand in a long line. It would have been nice to have some bananas or something light right there.
Overall great time and will run this again next year.
