"I cannot begin to tell you how well run your race was run. I have done several marathons and this one was by far my favorite. Everything from the supportive volunteers to the inspirational signs, to the free beer, to the awesome medal was flawless. It was a perfect day. Thank you!!"Jacob says...
"Thanks for a great day and a great race!! First time running Asheville and we loved it!! Looking forward to next year!"Kim says...
"The whole race had such an 'Asheville Vibe.' If anyone wants to experience Asheville this is a great way to do it! I loved seeing all the art on the buildings. You really get such a different perspective when you are running by something versus driving by."Deanne says...
"The spectators along the course gave such boosts of energy to all the runners along the way! Music along the course was such a fun surprise and the after race party cannot be beat!! This was such a fun race and I would do this course again and again!!"
