Testimonials

1. The destination. 2. Running on two continents. 3. Running past ancient ruins.

Besides just finishing the race (!), the location of the hotel was really really perfect (although see the next item). Thank you for having an "Asian" opportunity with weather that wasn't too hot. It was a great day to run.

A memorable chance to experience two continents and two cultures in one place.

It was exotic, historical and educational with a group of wonderful people.

The amazing history and cultural difference of Istanbul.

The local tour guides were excellent. I was surprised how much I learned about Turkish and Ottoman history and culture.

Istanbul sight seeing, food, night life. Excellent guides. Perfectly organized trip.

Interacting with the group and exchanging stories etc. The Meet and Greet reception is a great idea to meet everyone. Maybe could have everyone introduce themselves and say where they were from

Really pleasantly surprised with unexpected lecture on Cuban-American relations - very helpful to hear the Cuban perspective. Cigar factory was fun, Ernest's house was great. 

The people - including Karen - were fantastic. We had a diversity of experiences and a great run. The organization, support, setting of expectations, was simply perfect. It was an interesting time to go to Cuba
