Nice race, too hot this year

Pros: - generally nice course with a few rolling hills and views of Lake Michigan - easy to navigate smaller expo - good communication from race director - start was convenient with lots of indoor bathrooms - nice medal - appreciated return shuttle from finish to host hotels - plenty of water stops Cons - way to hot and humid this year, not that race director could control this, but was super tough for last part of marathon; maybe an earlier start could help?? - Hoan bridge was really tough way to end- no shade, lots of concrete, no water stops on bridge - not a ton of crowd support for a town of this side with almost no music/entertainment on course (except awesome polka guy at top of bridge)
