U.S. Air Force Marathon

This is the reason I prefer races in the US. This was worth the 12+ hour drive from Ottawa. You had a pretty course, great t - shirt, great medal, pizza at the finish line! Every mile had a water station and plenty of first aid. Free parking at the start. Cheap registration fees, I could go on!
The few minor problems were better signage at the expo (I couldn't find some of the vendors) and a return shuttle from the finish line to the start line. The volunteers were great and the race was well organized.

Great race. Flyovers by F-15s and an original Wright Flyer. The Wright Flyer came over right at the place where the Wright Brothers had their first airport. I will probably run one of their distances every year for as long as they keep having the event.
