Beautiful scenery, well organized
This is an extremely well organized, small marathon/half marathon. Most of course is on a paved bike/hike trail with stunning views of the Kenai pennisula. Plenty of water stops with port-a-lets, fruit and sports drink. The long-sleeve shirt and swag reflect the personality of the race and pennisula. The weather was perfect - bright blue skies and great running temp. Highly recommend this race. The course is a loop with the half running 1/2 the loop (i ran the half this year)
