Event comments:

Post rave was below ave only b/c they ran out of water / fruit and as I went out to look for water fruit, they called me for a medal (was 3rd to last so unexpected) and I was getting water as they started right away and I didn't get it as a result. So sad. I would've killed for an orange slice about then.
A lot of volunteers, a lot of work, a tough course...kudos to the organizers!
