"A Beautiful Well Organized Event" (about: 2019)

1 previous marathon
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 3


This event was in a beautiful location. It offered many different distance options, was well organized and had great amenities on course and after the race - I loved the wet sponges to cool off in the humidity. The long sleeve tshirt and starfish medal were adorable. I wear my shirt all the time! It was my first time at this event and I ran the half marathon. I hope to do it again! and again!!!

"all about that swag with a sweet course" (about: 2019)

3 previous marathons
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


I absolutely loved the car magnet included in the swag bag! Oh and the coffee mug with the race decal was sweet. I bought it at the Expo and it's now my work coffee cup. The race t-shirts were a beautiful design, I just wish it was a short sleeve tech shirt so I can wear it year round, but it is my go-to shirt on chilly days. But that medal....was gorgeous! This was my first visit to Stuart (I live in Sebastian) and the course was beautiful and I loved all of the turns so it kept me going. I will definitely run this race again next year.

"An awesome race experience" (about: 2019)

6-10 previous marathons
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


I had an excellent race experience. The route was awesome running through the residential area in the early morning. All the volunteers were amazing and encouraging at water stations. I was very impressed with the police force managing busy intersections. The photographer was engaging, setting up photos around the 5K mark advising us on speaker that a photo op was coming up. The finish area was well shaded and food was outstanding. I will be referring this race to friends. The race shirt is beautiful, the material is soft and I like the fact that it was designed by a local artist. Also good job on the huge medal. Big thanks from this Canadian girl on an excellent race experience. Ran the half marathon distance.

"Beautiful course, beautifully supported!" (about: 2019)

First Marathon
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 3


Thank you for the best first (one and done) marathon! You can't control Florida weather in March. I suffered in the heat, yet after the course was closed, your bike marshals, James and Danielle made my finishing possible! (Note: I did stay hydrated and did not suffer any serious effects. Thank the race mgr for his sincere concern.)

"Favorite route ever!" (about: 2019)

4-5 previous marathons | 2 Marathon of the Treasure Coasts
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


Everything about the run was fantastic. Seriously. The route was perfect because it was mostly flat - and I enjoyed the nuance of the bridge out and back. It was the right level of challenge for me. Also the boardwalk run out by the water was nice. I appreciated the spectators on the way cheering me on! Post race food and medals were also a big plus!

"Beautiful day for a run" (about: 2018)

11-50 previous marathons | 1 Marathon of the Treasure Coast
COURSE: 4  ORGANIZATION: 4  FANS: 3


Having read about the screw up in 2017, I signed up for this race with a bit of trepidation. I was also running it to support one of the organizations it supports. The course has some beautiful sections, with a decent amount of shade. The downside is that much of it is run on concrete sidewalks. There are lots of water stops and support. We got near perfect weather this year with a starting temp of 51. And this year, they appear to have gotten the distance correct.

"Unacceptable" (about: 2017)

11-50 previous marathons | 1 Marathon of the Treasure Coast
COURSE: 1  ORGANIZATION: 1  FANS: 1


Worse race I have ever run. The race directed people the wrong way and course was short .7 miles. They asked some runners to add on mid race with a Garmin or added on time afterward. Rather than apologizing they blamed the runners saying they should know the course. Not to mention it was not marked with anything other than lawn signs which were not at every intersection and missing throughout the race. There was very little support on the course. Also no beer after the race as promised. Would not recommend to anyone there are plenty of other races that deserve your support and appreciate all their runners.
