It was the 1st marathon for my daughter & I, but we have done several minis. We really liked this marathon for many reasons. Easy & close parking available. Indoor restrooms close & available. No corrals needed because of low numbers. More room to run at your own pace & enjoy the race because of the low numbers. Fairly flat route. Easy to follow route & many police officers helping with traffic. Easy to get across finish & receive medals because of low numbers. We have run the Mini man times & there are just too many people. It's hard to get to a restroom, it' crowded in the corrals, the crowd really never thins out so you can find yourown pace, it was backed up at the finish last year so it was hard to get to chip removal & receive your medal. I personally like the smaller races like this & the Indpls. marathon at Ft. Ben. This race was very well run. Thank you! My husband, daughter, & I ran The Indianapolis Monument Marathon & loved it.
