This race happened to fall on a weekend that worked for my marathon training schedule which is why I decided to run it. This was my first half marathon so I don't really have anything to compare it to but I thought it was fun! The fans and runners were incredibly motivating and friendly. The scenery is nothing to get hyped up about- flat, bike trail along the river. It was humid which wasn't a surprise as all of the Cincinnati area is extremely humid in the summer months. Overall it fit the bill for what I was looking for during my marathon training schedule.
