What an interesting event this was. A very small marathon event; I think they might have had about 400 runners from the local running clubs attending. Easy registration and fun volunteers. The course was flat and easy to follow. It lacked spectators almost completely through the countryside, where the most of the distance occurred. Found myself running alone for the most part. No pasta party, no award, no ChampionChip use. But it was fun and a valuable training tool for future marathons.
