Comments:  For my first half marathon, this was certainly a fun race!  Characters, bands, volunteers and spectators lined the entire way.  My favorite, of course, were the gymnasts on the trampoline.  I had to smile at that!  A guy making a video for YouTube was running near me for almost the entire race.  He was kind of running around for lack of a better description.  I'm not sure how I stayed off his radar and didn't make it into the video (should I be insulted?), but you will not see me there.

Lesson(s) Learned:  Always look for the finisher shirt.  I don't know if they had one, but I didn't see it.  I wish I had known to search it out.
