The course is beautiful and well-supported, medals, shirts and finisher jackets look fantastic, and the post-race margaritas are awesome!!

"Enjoyable race, with free high quality race photos" (about: 2017)

11-50 previous marathons | 2 Bryan/College Station Marathons
COURSE: 4  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 4


Loved that the marathon was opened with a prayer. Not the most scenic course, but it was well organized. It's still miles better than most of the other big city races- the end of race food is also way better than the RnRSA for example. I would definitely run this course again.

"Fantastic!" (about: 2017)

COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


This race is very well organized. Lots of communication via e-mail, and social media. Shirts and finisher's jackets are the type that you would definitely wear (this year there were a lot of people wearing last year's jacket in the chilly morning).

"Best Race in Texas!" (about: 2017)

4-5 previous marathons | 4-5 Bryan/College Station Marathons
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 3


I've run or prospected this race every year it has been around, and there is no other race that is as well organized or more runner-centered than BCS.

"Course too long, everything else great" (about: 2017)

1 previous marathon | 1 Bryan/College Station Marathon
COURSE: 2  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


Course was too long (my estimate was .4 miles, but they only owned up to .25). Great route around town. A good portion of concrete, but no loops was great. Organization was superb. Support was great - at the end it lacked - but the spin class at the start was fantastic. The guy offering shots of fireball was also great.

This is by far my favorite race! I've run each distance once and I'll probably be back every year!

"This race was flawless!" (about: 2017)

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


This race was amazing from the moment I registered until days after the race. The communication through emails and facebook was unparalleled. There was a great suggested training plan. The course was great and support along the course simply could not have been better. The volunteers and police officers were positive, polite and encouraging. The medal top notch. They gave out super cool finishers jackets. I may never take mine off. Within 2 days they sent a link to FREE downloadable race pictures! Come on man!!!! This race is mind-blowing!!! I hope they don't change a thing!

"Awesome Overall Race Experience" (about: 2017)

2 previous marathons | 1 Bryan/College Station Marathon
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


I have run the Half and Full Marathons and I can honestly say the overall race experience is outstanding each time. The course is well marked. There are ample aid/water stations with great volunteers and spectators everywhere! One of the best races I run every year.

"FABULOUS RACE!!!" (about: 2017)

3 previous marathons | 3 Bryan/College Station Marathons
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 4


This race is AWESOME! Every cent of proceeds are allocated to wonderful charities. The course is the right amount of easy and hard. The rolling hills are perfectly placed with the flatter areas right where you need them. The swag...OMG THE SWAG!!!!!!
