"No sophomore slump here! Year two was awesome." (about: 2012)

I ran this in year one and again this year (year two) and they really upped their game. It was already a fun race, but the organizers and volunteers have turned it into a truly wonderful experience.

"Very well executed marathon" (about: 2012)

COURSE: 4  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


This was my second marathon. I wanted to try a smaller marathon, and this was a smaller one, but it was handled like a bigger marathon. The organization of the race was fantastic! The communication from the director was amazing. The support was incredible, from the volunteers at the aid stations and medical stations to the police officers who were directing traffic. It was a very well executed race and I will definitely try to run it again.

"Best Marathon I Ever Ran In" (about: 2012)

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


I've run in many of the big name marathons, but this was the best. The set-up was great and even though I did not need the services, I never seen so much medical support at any race. With the unseasonal high temps, having the water stations at every 1.5 miles and the cold towels was great. The organization and city was great. The race course was also nice; the fact that family and friends could be with you around the finish area and not be charge was great. Most of the time they corral runners and family and friends have to pay to be with you. Cannot wait until next year I will be back, and will tell everyone about the great time I had so they will want to come also. GREAT JOB!

"Outstanding for a first timer" (about: 2012)

COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 5  FANS: 5


This was my first half marathon so I had no idea what to expect. I fear that I am now spoiled and will be disappointed with every other race I enter. The course was clearly marked, the aid stations were great and the spectators were amazing. Great first experience and will definitely be back next year.

I cannot say enough about this marathon in its second year. It was very well organized. The RD communicated very well all throughout from the beginning up to the last day. The staff and volunteers were excellent. The medical staff A++. The swag was excellent. I would definitely run it again every year.

"Great, flat course with lots of crowd support" (about: 2012)

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


Had a great time at the race - course was relatively flat and the half-marathon had crowd support almost all the way. Water was plentiful and medics available ALL throughout the course. Handled warmer than normal temperatures extremely well by providing extra water and ice towels. Received 2 shirts AND the race was for an awesome cause?! Definitely signing up next year too.
