Summary

Marissa and Austin discuss their experience running the Myrtle Beach Marathon. They chose this race as a weekend getaway and to use their flight credit and hotel points. Marissa started planning the race in November and gradually increased her training. The race had a small expo and packet pickup was quick and easy. The race course was primarily on roads and had a few turns. The water stops were frequent, but the water tasted soapy. The crowd support was minimal, but the volunteers at the water stations were enthusiastic. After the race, there were post-race activities and a party at the baseball stadium. Marissa enjoyed the quietness of the weekend and the opportunity to take a nap. They also discussed their upcoming races and their fandom for the Cleveland Guardians and Boston Red Sox.

Takeaways

Check the quality of the water at the water stops before drinking.
Enjoy the quietness and relaxation of a weekend race getaway.
Take advantage of post-race activities and parties to celebrate your accomplishment.
Support your favorite sports teams and incorporate them into your race experiences.
