Jacksonville Bank Half Marathon
NOT happy about my time, but I guess not everyone can say they finished a half marathon with a migraine. That's okay. I got the next one....

2011 Race
very good race; flat and fast; good organization form packet pick up to traffic control. Much of the course is through residential neighborhoods, which invites the usual impatient drivers pulling out of their drive way. Weather was perfect. Good finisher medals, t-shirt wasnt as good as last years, massages, bagels, bannanas, soup, etc at finish. Host hotel Embassy Suites was great with late checkout, complimentary breakfast, and shuttle to race.

Very well organized race!
This was easily one of the more enjoyable races I have participated in. The course, weather, and organization were all about perfect. This was my second marathon in 6 weeks and I was not nearly as recovered as I thought I was. Although my time was not what I hoped for, it was still a very enjoyable race. I look forward to doing this one again, but on fresh legs next time! Not many spectators, but that does not matter to me.
