  After doing the half marathon and Tour de Pacific bike ride in 2022, Ron Hill described Pacific Coast Running Festival as his favorite Why Racing event because it felt like a beach race vacation.

  Source context and limitations

  Organizer-selected athlete interview about the 2022 half marathon and bike ride. This is brief historical festival context, not a Sand Marathon review or an independent survey. The organizer chose and published the positive quotation. Hill also says each Why Racing event becomes his new favorite; no further commercial relationship is stated. Current dates and courses can differ.
