Beautiful course, lots of hills.
Beautiful course, volunteers were fantastic. Few spectators but they were very supportive. I ran this as my first Marathon. I was not prepared for the amount of hills... they were everywhere. The worst one was between mile 21 and 23. Challenging course for a first timer, I would probably do it again if I trained on hills for 15 miles. Completed. I'm 4:15, I really wanted a sub 4 but ended up having to walk some hills at the end which slowed me down. 100% recommend this Marathon.

Scenic course, very hilly, no spectators
Summary: Hilly. Perfect weather. Nice scenery. No spectators. Not a BQ course. Except it was.

Beautiful
Beautiful but very difficult course....just not a PR course. Very well organized, few spectators, but very friendly and enthusiastic when you see them. Would be a great destination race. My only complaint, and it's minor, is no Gatorade on course. There's Nuun and it's a little sporadic, so next time I'd run with a bottle of sports drink. Volunteers very helpful and friendly.
