Very beautiful, very difficult
This is my 28th marathon. This is by far the most beautiful and most difficult course I've ever run. The 1st 18 or so miles are magnificent and VERY hilly. The last 8 miles, at times, felt almost dangerous because I was running on a busy road with traffic and no running lane. Other than that I give it a big thumbs up!

Challenging but scenic course for a well run race.
This race should be on the list of anyone who enjoys destination races. Very well organized, good community support, and great scenery. Probably not the race to do if you are chasing a BQ, but it is possible to run well there. Give it a shot!
