"Great course, well organized, awesome spectators" (about: 2011)

COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


This was my second half-marathon. I loved the course. The race director did an awesome job of keeping us informed and excited about race day. The spectators came out in droves to support us. They printed first names on the bibs so spectators we didn't know were able to cheer us on by name. Can't wait to run the full next year!

"Great Race!" (about: 2011)

6-10 previous marathons | 1 Bryan/College Station Marathon
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 4


Medals both ribbon and medal were high quality. Awesome!
Tech shirts great. Plain, white tech shirt. Just my kind!
Organization among the best races I've ever run.
Cost of race I was happy to know my money for registration were going to great causes, including the Mercy Project. Also, race was fairly priced.
Course mostly flat with rolling hills. Was so nice to be back in BCS, I've really missed it.

"OUTSTANDING!" (about: 2011)

1 previous marathon | 1 Bryan/College Station Marathon
COURSE: 4  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


I've never run a full/half-marathon before, so I couldn't justify a 5-star on the course. However, from an organization perspective, it was absolutely 5-stars. Chris Fields and his crew have put on an OUTSTANDING race! He created such a personable relationship and interaction with us, it made preparing and running the race so much easier. Thank you!

The race was organized very well and the support staff was highly visible and made the race a fun race to run. All aid stations were staffed with excited and smiling faces and there were plenty of spectators and musicians throughout the course. I plan to run this race every year.

This was my 3rd marathon to run in 2 year and by far the best! The spectators made you feel like family; even if they couldn't be in their yards, they left signs of encouragement for us. I will now be a lifer with the BCS marathon!
