Event comments:

Good to go back to the alma mater. Post race drink supplies were questionable, event staff didn't seem to give the same attention/consideration to those finishing in the BOP third as to those in the front (who paid the same event fee). Breakdown was already in progress as the BOP folks were finishing (not the last 5 in, but like the last 50 people in)
