Assuming the same course as last year it's a fast one and a well-organized race. Unfortunately they moved the date back 2 weeks this year and it now conflicts with Boston - I think they will lose some of the fast people but it's a good sized race. It's pretty flat but with some subtle rises so it's not monotonous - kinda like the Columbus Marathon. I ran much faster than expected last year and PR'ed by several minutes so I have a special place in my heart for it!
