This was a tough marathon for me this year! I don't know why, I just didn't run as well as I would have wanted to.

Expo: Expo was well set up, easy to get to and easy to go through.
T-shirts: Not going to lie, was kind of disappointed in the design. It's nice quality and they let you try on shirts before picking *which is awesome. After buying New York gear from New Balance before the race, I was just expecting more from the shirt.
Aid Stations: Fabulous- wish they had more biofreeze
Course Scenery: The bridges are beautiful, however there were some lulls in the scenery.
Elevation: There are some hills...
Parking: I did not have to park, however I did have to get the start from Manhattan. I took the ferry, then the buses and it was SO EASY. I was so worried I would get lost, but no, not the case at all. Very well set up.
