Change in the Marathoning Plan

So as soon as I announced my race schedule for next year I had to change it. The change is for a fantastic reason and had nothing to do with weather so don't worry. Now I am looking for a cheap, fun, and local fall marathon. Due the reason I have to change race dates, I would like to be running in October or very late September.

Here are few of the top choices in no real order. I would love to hear your thoughts.

Morgan Hill Marathon - October 20, 2013
This is currently my top choice because of location and other such things but I am not sure yet.
Pros:

• It is an hour or so away
• All in would cost about $200.
• It seems like it could be scenic and in a pretty area.
• It will be smaller

Cons:

• It won't have a lot of "umph"
• There are a few very tight switch backs on the course
• It will be small

Lake Tahoe Marathon - September 30, 2013
I have always loved Tahoe and running there is fun...so why not race there right?
Pros:

• It will be unbelievably beautiful
• It will be nice and cool
• It will be easy to get an ice bath after
• Did I mention it will be pretty?

Cons:

• It is on a mountain and will have very little oxygen to breath 
• It is on a mountain so it will be hilly
• It is on a mountain so I will have to get used to the elevation a few days in advance and maybe even do some training up there.
• It is on a mountain

Nike Women's Marathon - October 2013 (Can't find a website)
I watched the race this year and I kind of want the Tiffany charm.
Pros:

• It is fun with lots of people
• It is in San Francisco so I can sleep at home
• There is very good support along the course 

Cons:

• It is a big race for people who don't train as hard as they should
• It is a women's race and I don't want to take away from that or a space from a woman who wants to race.
• It is in San Francisco so it is hilly as a mofo

Napa Wine Country Marathon - October 26, 2013
Who doesn't like wine country and shamefully we have yet to get up there.  So this could be a winner.
Pros:

• This is a small race
• It is in Napa in the fall, so pretty
• It is pretty close to home and starts late enough that I could sleep at home

Cons:

• It is a trail run
• It won't be well supported or have fans
• With my luck it will be a muddy hell
