I thought about doing the Ocean Drive Marathon last year, sort of as a training run for Nashville. I might do this one if I hadn't already committed to Pittsburgh. And all these things conflict with Broad Street, one of my favorites.

Only some of it is on the boardwalk. I loved it this last year and I have decided it is so close Im going to make it a regular. Very cost effective and gets my training off to a good start. I cant afford to keep travelling every time I want to run a ,marathon.
