Spring Hill Marathon Mania Where & When
Most Helpful Review
Dangerously low on water and Gatorade
I signed up for this race based on past reviews, so hopefully this will help some people make up their minds. The race website described water and Gatorade every 2 miles. Instead, on the marathon course, there were two 4 mile sections with nothing. Since it’s an out and back course, that totals 16 miles of no fluids. It was a cool morning, but there is very little shade on the trail, and it was sunny and warm before too long. Not only that, but there was no water or Gatorade waiting at the finish for th
Don't bother
I went to cheer on some friends who were running this race. (I have run 8 marathons and 70 half marathons so I do have some experience.) This was the most poorly organized affair I have ever seen. We went to mile 8 to cheer for our friends to discover a lone volunteer at the water stop. She had never done this before and had no idea what to do other than pour a small amount of water or Gatorade in very small cups. Water stops were to be every 2 miles, but there were not enough volunteers to man the promised

The Best BQ Marathon In Florida
What other Marathon in Florida gives you a better opportunity to qualify for Boston than this one? Completely flat, almost completely straight out and back, and held early in the morning in January! Not to mention prize money, no crowds of 10,000 + people, and a friendly, well organized race.
Love this race!
I participated in a 10k the very first year Marathon Mania started and I loved it. Very well organized and plenty of good homemade food! I will be there doing another 10k for 2019.
Small shouldn't be an excuse
I ran the marathon here with my friend and it was definitely smaller than I thought, but that's no excuse for how it was ran. Even though we were well within the 7 hour allotted time (finishing in 6:04), by the time we hit the last station it had been cleaned up as well as all of the food they promised finishing runners at the end of the race. They only people left was one handing out medals and one collecting our chip, everything else had been packed away. And, not that it is a necessity, theres no music a
Potentially Dangerous Marathon
I ran the marathon 1-6-19. The aid stations were not located as promised. Mile markers were sparse then disappeared. The race distance and results appear inaccurate. The course was not closed to bikers which was terrifying at times. There were unassisted street crossings. The facts of the marathon race render its advertising false. It was a disappointing experience and I am questioning how this race could possibly be a Boston qualifier? Avoid the marathon and higher distances, the half or lower aren’t bad
Great Race
Loved this race. Not crowded. Course was flat, simple, but with nice scenery. Good water stops (maybe larger cups next year?) Good police support.
Disappointing
Only ran the 10k 3 years in a row, last year I never received a shirt promised by mail, no biggie, but this year, the timing chips not working was a real disappointment. I'm pretty sure I got a PR but without official timing I'm not counting it. Had only gun time which was not accurate for everyone stuck in the chip and limited bathroom line thinking, with the chip it doesn't matter when we start. Not life altering for me but those who wanted a BQ, I feel sorry for them if those missed minutes meant qualif
