Congratulations to Mike Herman and Nancy Talley as well as EYE-Q Vision Care Center for hosting such a fantastic marathon. The course was flat and fast until the rolling hills of Woodward Park around mile 21. Although I call them "rolling hills", I am FROM the area, so anything more than a .5% grade is steep for me!!  The hills were no match for us as many set Personal Records (including me!)

The volunteer and course support were great, the crowds were everywhere to cheer for us, and for a smaller marathon (3000 participants combined for the half and full), I could not have asked for more. The food at the finish was MUCH better than I've received at bigger races, and the sweat-wicking shirt from the expo along with the warm sweatshirt at the finish are evidence that THIS IS A RUNNER'S RACE- developed by and for runners!!

my first run in any running event ,looking forward to twin city half marathon

This is my first year, I did enter the run since you can run and walk it. Good luck to everyone!

thank you two city marathon for letting me experiance my 1rst half marathon or may i say my first marathon ever,it was great the medal the shirt the sweatshirt ,breafast everything, im hooked ,everything came out perfect except for one thing ,n that was my fault i forgot my chip that goes on my running shoes,i still ended up running the half marathon in 1 hr n 53 minutes ,im gonna definitly run next year ,n yeah that uphill towards the end got me good,i was lucky to finish ,i didnt train going uphill,good running all,thanks again two city marathon.

Everything was very organized! great goodies for runners after ie. breakfast, jacket, massages etc.  I was a little confused at why that killer hill was given to us at the 8-9 mile mark.  to me it would have been better placed at the beginning then the end.  otherwise I had an absolute blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Appreciated all of the goodies, thank you! A very well organized event! Would have loved to have run through that lovely park (over that cute bridge!) instead of the roads around it for some of the portions.

This had to be the best race experience for me.  The course support was excellent---plenty of water/gatorade/gu/medical stops.  Post race goodies:  sausage, egg, potato breakfast, plenty of fruit, and an ice cream sundae:  YUM!  And the goodies:  a hat and long sleeve tech tee when you obtain your bib, and when you cross finish line a hooded zip up sweatshirt!  love it! 

Course for the most part was pretty flat, except towards the end.  But nothing compared to the hills of the San Francisco Marathon.

I also had a great pacer, and met lots of wonderful people along the course.  LOTS of fans cheering-I loved it.  Also, had a timer at about each mile yelling out times as you passed.  My only "dislike" was that the area after you cross the finish line was fenced off for runners only.  I wanted a hug from my family-but I also wanted my breakfast and ice cream sundae!  My family had to wait while I inhaled my breakfast.  Maybe the race organizer might change that next year.  It did help with the traffic congestion, though.

I will probably sign up again next year.
