This was a super fun race and so far my favorite Marathon. It was very well managed, beautiful scenery and great swag. The medal is beautiful. They had plenty of parking and tons of volunteers. I loved how all the neighborhoods were extremely supportive and there was a competition among them. I would highly recommend this race.

I loved this marathon and highly recommend it. It was very well managed, the course support was wonderful, aid stations were frequent (although I wish they provided Nuun) and it seemed the entire town came out to support the runners. We loved all the musicians that were playing their instruments during the race. One guy even brought his grand piano into his lawn! Very very well done race.

The scenery for this race was spectacular! Hilly but totally worth it. The temperature this time of year in Spokane is great and the course is very good. But the management of this race was rough. The posted maps were from the wrong year and volunteers did not redirect people who got lost or didn't know where to go. My family couldn't find the finish because it wasn't posted correctly. This all may have been an issue due to the park being under construction but there should have been better communication. All that being said, I would recommend this race if they worked out the issues with the maps since it was quite beautiful.
