This race is very well organized, the volunteer and crowd support is excellent, and the communications from the race director and other race officials is outstanding. I will be sure to run this race every year!

"My Favorite Race!" (about: 2014)

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


We love the the BCS half and full because the supporters give 100% the whole way. I jog/walk a slower pace and it is so nice for energy stations to still have oranges/brownies!!!etc...but even better the cheer sections are so amazing and supportive. It is the little things that make this race so amazing. They read every comment you make and make the changes they can to get better every year!

"Fantastic Organizers" (about: 2014)

COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


Great race. A lot more hills than I expected, which led to a slightly slower finish time, but I still PR'd! The organization was amazing. Great food, fantastic volunteers, and a wonderful overall 'feeling.' I can't wait to race it again next year!

 

N. C. from Texas (12/15/2014)
"Overall, well-organized." (about: 2014)

11-50 previous marathons | 3 Bryan/College Station Marathons
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 4  FANS: 3


The event was well-organized. However, I think we were ill-advised by the race director who posted 'These temps are good for running and good for running fast...Go hit your goals, get a PR, and have fun. No excuses.' The starting temp was 61, ending temp 75. My opinion we should have been advised to take it easy, listen to our bodies.

"I loved everything about this race!" (about: 2014)

First Marathon
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


This was my very first full marathon, and I couldn't have wished for a better experience. I've run several other half marathons, but none of them compared to the level of organization and preparedness of this one. There were so many water and aid stations that I didn't ever feel dehydrated or hungry. Plus the volunteers were amazing, and gave so much encouragement, especially when you're at the end and really need it. The course was marked really well, and the traffic control was great. Overall, I had a wonderful experience, and am totally signing up for next year.

"Best race out there!!!" (about: 2014)

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


This race is so well run. They care about the runners. The race director and announcer came to check on me since I cramped up right at the end. It was after I had finished and was walking around. They remembered and cared enough to ask.
