I have run the Modesto Half Marathon many times and I have always had a good experience. Everything about the event is well organized and professional, but very personal and friendly. The course is flat and fast, well marked, and well separated from traffic. Overall a very friendly, low-stress event that I highly recommend.
Anne Myers Kelley Half Marathon
The spectators are supportive and the aid stations are awesome. I love that we can walk to the start line from our hotel. The expo is amazing with great vendors. And of course you can’t go wrong with beer and wine at the finish.
Margaret Ervin Half Marathon
2018 was my 4th year running this Marathon. Great course, great volunteers, aid stations, jacket, medals and swag.
Stacy Mullen Marathon
Another excellent and well organized event! Communication via e-mail easily kept participants up to date without being too cumbersome; Expo was well organized with a variety of vendors. Bib and packet pick-up also well organized. Thank you again and looking forward to 2019’s event!
Denise Miyake Garcia Half Marathon
I loved that there was cheering for every single person who ran/walked to the finish line! Having music close to the finish line and other runners cheering/running others in was very encouraging to finish the race. The team that put this event on is just incredible!!! A very BIG thank you!
