California International Marathon Is Underway Drawing Runners from All Over the World

Tougher than Expected, Too Many Participants

Don't Run If You Can't Finish in 5 hours 30 mins

Objective review from back of the pack runner

Great overall race, with excellent organization!

My 1st BQ!   You must be researched and trained.

Very Well-Organized, Not Particularly Fast, Course

You could be better  and you have been better. B-

I have run the CIM 21 times in a row, it's great

Expected more after 31 years of an Intl Marathon

Pace group was a tremendous help on stormy day

Great marathon... water stations need fixing

Fast course; well organized; world-class runners

No better place to run your first marathon

Awesome Boston Qualifier or First Marathon

CIM is pretty much what it claims if you're ready

Loved the course, but those water stops...

BQ'd for the first time in my 11th Marathon

Not as fast as I expected, but very well organized

Great organization, fast course, but cold/windy

Nice race that seems to have grown too quickly

Do NOT rely on buses to get to start on time!
