Since last year we have addressed the issue...Mary,<br /><br />Since last year we have addressed the issue of packet pick up and you can now pick it up at race site on race morning. As far as the course goes... we wanted to really be able to offer entertainment along the way so the only place the city really allows to during that time in the morning is the JT Causeway so that is why we choose to run on the causeway. Furthermore, we heard from the runners (and based on this year's registration numbers increasing by almost 50%) that it would be a nice change if we chose another part of our community different from that shown through most of the ING course... so we chose to make it a little tough (especially helpful for those training for any other marathon outside of South Florida) to run the bridges offered by the Julia Tuttle Causeway. We will again revisit the suggestions and comments of you - the runners - after this year's edition of 13.1 Miami Beach as we pride ourselves in listening to make things better.<br /><br />Frankie Ruiz<br />Co-Founder<br />ING Miami MarathonFrankiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02474305967940271563noreply@blogger.com
