Great Experience - Beautiful Scenery
The weather was perfect and the course was nice. Better markings could be used but if you paid attention you would be fine. Support and entertainment along the course was great but not much at finish line. Bart Yasso was there and is awesome! I would recommend for all 50 staters!

A cool event
Cool, as in more than 40 degrees cooler than what it was for my last training runs before the race. Yeah, I know it makes no sense to comment on the weather, be it lousy or great, but this was darn near perfect for running. It allowed me to better enjoy the scenery along the paved path, which included Cook's Inlet and a variety of wooded areas. I'd recommend this race if you're a 50-stater, or if you just want to use it as a kickoff to a visit to beautiful Alaska.
