This was my first half marathon and it was terrible! I don't think you can have a successful race with 44,000 people! It was way too many people! As another racer said it was poorly run and organized. The marathoners and half marathoners were running the same course. Most of the halfers tried to stay to the side but there were many that didn't or couldnt because there were too many people!! When I was done it took me 90 minutes to get from my the secure zone to my car! Ridiculous! They should cut off the number of people at a reasonable number. My run tracker said I ran over 14 miles and it was all because I was weaving in and out of people! Craziness. I wouldnt do this race again unless there are less people
