Great course, Weather is a toss up
The course was perfect, couldn't ask for better. 2 loops as flat as can be. The weather unfortunately is too variable. By the time I was half way into the race the humidity really ramped up. About 550 people did not finish for 2023, I personally did not achieve my BQ but it was weather related. Wish there was more water stops as well. Every other mile seems like a lot until you miss the water station at mile 18 and have to struggle until 20. No frills marathon but locally run so at least it supports the community. Tough to run a local marathon if you are used to bigger atmospheres.
