"Overall they did a great job. I prefer not to have turnarounds, but I understand that many courses need this. My biggest complaint was the lack of Honey Buckets at the start. I did find that they had plenty of water stations and aid stations. Had I needed emergency assistance I might have been upset because they were clearly lacking. They called for emergency personel from the crowd at the finish line because they did not have enough to help distressed or injured runners. Overall a great experience. (3 stars for organization due to the lack of Honey Buckets.)"

"Fantastic race - start line at the Gig Harbor Airport. Packet pickup was exceptionally well organized, great music and high energy. Fantastic running across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. Wonderful volunteers and a great race - will return next year!"

"Amateur organization, with far too few aid and water stations. 15 Portable toilets for 1,000 runners at the start, and they delayed the race because of the line! There was no medical tent, and choas ensued for those looking for assistance. Although much of the course is scenic, there are many tight and inane switchbacks that leave you covering the same ground repeatedly. Overall very amateur and poorly organized race---the worst I've ever seen. I certainly won't run this race in the future. "
