Very nice race for the first time hosting a half marathon.  All runners received a nice jacket and medal.  Nice course and scenic.   I would suggest adding Gatorade to the aid stations, better quality paper on the numbers as they tended to pull through the pins with the drizzle and wind, and start the 5k separate from the half as there is quite a bottleneck the first two miles. 

Good race for 1 st time half marathon, need a litlle more space before the first turn and I would prefer to not run in sand for finish (yea I know its called Run to the Beach but we could stop before the sand). I pulled a calf muscle in the sand.  I did set my personal best for half at 1:42:53.

Wonderful race!  The course was  beautiful, loved the jacket!  Trail sections slowed me down a bit but were worth it for the variety and scenery. Awards were unique and much better than plaque or trophy.  Results and awards prompt and efficient. Consider starting 5K later to relieve congestion.  Would appreciate Gatorade-type drink at water stops and Power gel (any brand) after 9-10 miles

Great race!  I would definitely do it again next year.  However, I'd suggest starting the 5K and 1/2 marathon at different times to avoid the craziness at the starting line and first turn.

Enjoyed myself thoroughly despite the chilly drizzle! The number bibs didn't survive the rain very well.  I had to pin mine back on 3 times after it ripped. I also echo other's comments about the congested start, running with traffic (cars whizzing by at 50 MPH while I'm on the right shoulder - I never do that) and no toilets on the course. However, I do appreciate the hard work that goes into organizing these races and expect to return again next year.

Fun race considering the elements. Good post race food. Would recommend paper over plastic cups for the water stops. The plastic cups just just cracked and broke and you lost most of your water unless you grabbed them from the top.

I liked the varied terrain and scenery.  The mass start was a little chaotic.  Overall, I would recommend this a great break from yet another street race.
