This was such a FUN race! Well its Key West :) An easy and flat out and back course, you run by the water, where the sunrise was just fabulous. A perfect winter get away weekend, from record breaking snow fall here in Massachusetts.

The packet pickup, directions, parking and everything was easy.
Race day was very organized and beautiful sunrise on the coast.

Entertainment on the course, and a fantastic band at the finish line party. I have to admit it was the longest I've ever stayed at the post party! The band, hours of free beer, bagels, muffins, fruit and more went on as we danced and celebrated fun in the sun. They also have a raffle of great prizes, and I won a Key Lime Pie, it helped in my recovery... Delish

The shirts were awesome, and love the Wine stopper finishers medal.

I'm already registered for 2016, as a few weeks after returning home, the race sent out a special return discount. :)

Always a good race to kick your butt in gear! Cold and hilly, just what you need for Boston or any Spring Marathon training program.

Starts at the school so you can keep warm until you head out. Post refreshments are a treat, pizza, chili, hot drinks and snacks.

First time running this race, but heard great things about it.

I found the packet pickup/expo to be very organized and easy to access. Race day there are parking lots, but no discounted rate, so it was 10.00, but only 2 blocks from downtown start/finish.

It really is a friendly race! Lots of support along the way, entertainment, and everyone seemed happy!

They give great swag, with a nice blue shirt, finishers runners cap, and I love the finishers fleece blanket you get at the finish, as it was only in the 20's.

Finish line and exiting was also easy! A small and friendly race, with no stress. A great way to end the year of road marathons.

Well I have run over 60 marathons, and this one is my favorite :) 17 years ago it was my first marathon and I haven't missed a year since. So organized, fun and emotional.... Put this on your list, you will love the DC support.

Great Scenery and so much support! The T shirts were cotton and small, but I have so many as it is, so didn't bother me. It was such an amazing experience to run through Boston for such a great cause and see so many people out on the course supporting us. Fabulous event!
