Hey, DOM. The Marathon was a huge success and is a great addition to the other events that San Antonio hosts. The fact that it will be here every year is going to be great for the tourism industry, tax base, and locally owned businesses. It is a major event not to be overlooked, but with that said it doesn't bring nearly the kind of publicity that a Final Four does to the city.

There are allready a lot of good health based events in SA, but I hope that having the marathon here annualy will help increase the number of smaller health based events.
