Instead of putting on a good marathon, race organizers want to put on a great half marathon.  The events will continue to be staged in the picturesque Rocky Neck State Park.  The half marathon course will be flatter and more scenic than the marathon course was.  A 5K race will be added to attract the less intense runner.

Breezing To Victory at Mystic Places

Good course, but refreshments a bit lacking

Overall a very well organized and enjoyable event

Well run but not the event for us slow folks.

Deceptively hilly and very poorly supported

Incredible views, flat course for first-timer

Nice for runners, hectic for spectators...

Good Race to Finish, but not a PR or BQ Course!

Good Race With A Mildly Challenging Course

Overall, a good event; cruelly placed late hills

They lied. The course is not flat, it's very hilly

Beautiful course, but definitely not flat

Beautiful smallish race with a few wrinkles
