"Decent race but could be improved" (about: 2023)

11-50 previous marathons | 1 Jersey City Marathon
COURSE: 3  ORGANIZATION: 3  FANS: 4


The expo was more of a packet pick up than a true expo - expected something bigger for a race this size. The course was well supported with electrolyte drink, water, and gels. However, there was literally no food at the finish line. The course was touted as scenic and flat - it was definitely flat but not very scenic. It's mostly urban and industrial. There were a good amount of spectators despite the rain.

"Course not accurate" (about: 2023)

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


I ran the full marathon on April 23, 2023. From mile 3 to the End of the race, my gps watch showed I was 0.3 miles off. At the finish line my watch showed I had ran 27miles instead of 26.2 miles. Who certified this course? Secondly, poor planning with the after race music refreshments food located by the waters instead of being located by bag check area of 200meters from finish line. Few runners could get to the water. I will come back if the course is USATF certified.
