"A great, scenic, flat course!" (about: 2015)
11-50 previous marathons
| 1 Glass City Marathon
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 Really enjoyed my marathon on 4/26/2015. Well organized - loved the astroturf in the stadium. Only criticism is that the merge in the park could use better signage to the 19-21 mile section - found it slightly confusing and slowed me almost to a walk so I could verify the route from spectators. Did feel the final to the finish line was a bit long had 26.35 on my Garmin, a friend - 26.4. Would run it again though!! | |

First Marathon
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 4 The event improves every year. I liked that Goodwill was at the expo selling sweatshirts. The crowds and signs were awesome on the half course and the water stops were well-run. I have done the GCM half 5 times and 10 halfs in all since 2010. | |

"Excellent Course" (about: 2015)
2 previous marathons

COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 3 FANS: 4 Only negative was that the relay handoff locations were very hard to get to. We missed one b/c our runner simply could not get there by car. We were staying with family that lives on Orchard Rd and could not get off their street. | |
