1 Reviews for Parks Half Marathon

"The course was beautiful, but because it is a trail, runners should be really careful with their footing. It was moderately hilly and mostly shaded. Weather was fantastic -- low- to mid-60s in the morning.
Post-race food was amazing: lots of choices from fruit to pasta and pizza. Swag included a race beanie and long-sleeve tech shirt.
Only two complaints: (1) There were few spectators until the end point in Bethesda. This is to be expected because it was run on narrow trails. (2) Porta potty lines intersected with the race start corral, so you had lines of people mixed with lines of runners."
