    Craft Classic Half Marathon - Route 56 Challenge Medal, 2017: running both the Craft Classic & San Diego Holiday Halfs.

    It was an inaugural race geared towards runners that love a good craft beer. The race was heavily…read moreadvertised with the finish line being right at the Green Flash Brewery on Mira Mesa. Expo: It was located at the Road Runner Sports in San Diego on Copley Dr. Parking was a bit hairy with people coming and going, but there was ample parking spaces. I'm not sure if it was wise to take up part of the parking lot for the bib pickup. It was just an awkward venue for an expo. After picking up the bib and race shirt, we were given a pint glass and a pair of sunglasses. It was nice to actually get some decent swag at a race. We were also given a discount coupon for merchandise inside the store. The store was busy, so they definitely got some boosted traffic and sales. Pre race: Parking was at Green Flash Brewery. There was a huge parking lot just north of Green Flash and it was really convenient. From there, we headed east on Top Gun St to catch one of the nice luxury shuttles to the start line. It's always nice to ride in those instead of the school buses designed for elementary school kids. The shuttle dropped us off at Camino del Sur, just south of the 56 freeway. Just around the corner and up the Torrey Santa Fe Rd was a small table for gear check, more tables for water, and a bunch of portapotties. As to be expected for an inaugural race, there was almost a 10 minute delay before the start of the race. It was pretty much a no frills start. There was no singing of the national anthem. There wasn't even a starting gun, horn, or anything. Course: It was a decent and challenging course. The first half of the course was pretty nice and easy, just running on the 56 bike trail until we reached the 5 freeway. We then head down El Camino Real and Vista Sorrento Parkway before turning east on Sorrento Valley Blvd which would soon end up being about a one mile steady uphill climb. We finally got a longer stretch of downhill as we turned onto Camino Santa Fe. However there was another half mile or so climb up to Top Gun St for the final stretch to the finish line. Make sure you do your hill training to be ready for this course! Post race: They had small cups out for water and Nuun water. They also had Larabars, bananas, and other snacks. The finishing chute was a bit chaotic. The volunteers were having a hard time keeping up with the distribution of the finisher medals. The medals were individually bagged and they were spending a lot of time getting them out. There was so much traffic as people were all getting in line to trade in their drink vouchers for tickets. That really made no sense to me, as they weren't using that process to control the flow of people. There were 4 tents dispensing beers among other vendor booths, but the lines were all very long. Overall, it was a pretty well organized race for its first year with a few minor hiccups here and there. I'm pretty certain that they will improve the race if they continue to hold the event every year.

    With this run, I'm conflicted…read more It's not that I won't run it again. I probably will...although somewhat begrudgingly, I'm sure. Simply put, there's an aspect of this event that aggravates me. No, it's not the course, although I could have done without the mile 11-13 beat down (almost entirely uphill.) That's just San Diego for you: continuously rolling hills. Also, no, it's not the race's theme. "Going on a Beer Run" shirts; beer keg signposts (very clever, by the way) propped up throughout the course, pushing everyone to do their best; and the beer gardens finish line itself: all made for a fun and entertaining run. I loved it! And certainly, no, it wasn't that I didn't like the beer tap medals. They are awesome, and I mean that! And after running the San Diego Holiday Half, I am really looking forward to snagging my Route 56 challenge medal. But... A mandatory Expo for bib pickups, especially for out-of-towners? C'mon, Road Runner Sports, that is a huge hassle. (Anyone who's had to drive down to San Diego from Orange County knows that a stop-and-go, there-and-back, 4-hour chunk of your day is going to be lost.) Extra fees for mailing bibs are fine, I guess, but why not just allow participants to collect bibs on race morning? Everyone gets that you want to draw runners into your SD location and push sales, but it's so inconvenient. Since I know I'm doing a turn-around the next morning, by the time I finally get to the Expo, all I want to do is go home. The booth that was set up for bib pickup could have just as easily been set up on race morning. If only I could visit one of two Road Runner Sports closer to me--Laguna Hills and Costa Mesa--and by way of some brilliant breakthroughs in technology, I could have picked my bib up there (and maybe even spent some money)... Wishful thinking, I guess.

    "What do you want me to do? Dress in drag and do the hula?" - Timon, The Lion King…read more One of my favorite local runs! My only "Hawaiian" type of outfit is a wrap I bought years ago from the Bahamas. If it weren't for this race, I probably would have worn it twice. Now I can say I wore it at least 4 times now. Lol. As the years progress, the amount of participants increase. The course they have choose for the 5K is along walkways which are split into two way traffic areas, and still shared by pedestrians. They should make the walkways one way thus giving runners more space, and kick out the pedestrians. lol. For 2016, I believe they changed the route a bit, and even added a 10K. I remember last year, there was this lady looking for her son. I guess he was taken the night before. She was on the side asking runners if anyone has seen a little boy; it was quite the downer. Anyway, it's a fun, easy run for the whole family, and they always provide cute medals. Anything Hawaiian themed means you'll have a good time. :) TIPS -- It is alway hot, so be prepared and wear sunscreen. -- Parking can be a little tricky, so come early -- If you cannot pick up your gear at the day before at Road Runner Sports, you can pick it up on the day of the race. Shirt sizes may vary at that point. -- A timer is provided -- No gear check -- There is a "virtual" version of this race. You pay the fees, run/walk at your own leisure, and your medal and shirt will be mailed to you. -- Long Beach also has a Aloha Run! If you are that desperate, you can go to Long Beach. lol.

    A fun festive event,love the good atmosphere live entertainment and the course. Can't wait for next…read morerace.

I don't know what compelled me to signup for this...but it felt pretty fucking awesome afterwards...now I have an addiction. This was an extremely well organized event. All the staff was friendly and very well informed. The beautiful scenic course along the San Diego Bay and Convention Center was very well organized. The Naked Cafe provided a nice breakfast at the end with eggs, sausage, whole wheat pancakes, fruit. Other freebies included Popchips, Zico Coconut Water, and Michelob Light Beer...sure beats the usual crap bagels at half-marathons! For you single guys, there are A LOT of hot girls everywhere here, and they are ripped! No skinny-fat anorexic Downtwon girls...100% pure USDA lean muscle girls. All ages...I had never seen so many Hot Moms in one area. For you ladies, same thing. Its a Man Buffet out there for you...just pick the race, age, height, and size, there is something for everyone. CHUN P VS 78 Men in the 30-34 age group: SWIM: 31st out of 78 ...and I didn't drown! :) BIKE: 42nd out of 78 RUN: 46nd out of 78 OVERALL: 46th out of 78...but 432nd out of 1200+...yeah, not impressive.

I can't complain. Definitely looking forward to next years event. To those 1st timers. Don't slack on your swim training. Get plenty of time in the ocean. I did all my swimming at 24hr fitness... big mistake! My time suffered due to the current and not being able to see the buoys. I got off course a few times. The bike and run was cake! Both courses were flat and fast. Good luck!

I have run this challenging race from 2007-2013 and returned again in 2019. I took a hiatus from this race in order to run other races. It has always remained a well organized race throughout the years! They always have plenty of portapotties. *Race course* The course has remained the same in all of the years that I've run it. The course is very scenic and hilly, so make sure to do your hill training! If you don't, you will suffer especially at about mile 5.5 while running up the monster hill at Torrey Pines. After you get to the top, it's mostly a downhill run to the finish at the La Jolla cove. Be sure to save something for that last climb up Prospect! *Shuttles* I've always opted for parking at the dirt parking lot at the Del Mar Fairgrounds and taking a post race shuttle back to my car after the race. The shuttles load near the corner of Coast Blvd and Ocean St. You do have the option of parking in downtown La Jolla and taking a pre-race shuttle to the starting line. I might try that option one year. *Post-race goodies* Their finisher medals have improved quite a bit since when I first ran this race. The beer garden also has beer from Ballast Point, one of favorites when I used to drink beer.

Del Mar Racetrack is a must when visiting San Diego and is such a fun experience. My friends and I usually take the Amtrak train from Orange County to Del Mar station, they have shuttles to take you from the train to the venue for free which is nice. Dress to impress as well, they have a dress code but not too many people follow it. Some people go all out with suits, dresses and fancy dress wear. Tickets are affordable and they have a variety of ticket packages to choose from, we usually sit in GA area. As for the venue itself, its beautiful from the outside and the track is well maintained. If you look from the balcony, you can see the ocean! It's pretty confusing in my opinion to navigate each floor and where to find food concessions. They need to upgrade the building and rennovate the interior. The food here isn't too good but Tanner's Prime Burgers is a must. Betting is also confusing so I would recommend looking up a Youtube vid or ask some people around the stadium on how to do it. When in doubt, hammer Fresu, Rispoli, Berrios or Hernandez!
