Event comments:

This race had luck of everything: volunteers, funds, gifts, sings, coordination, organization. I think it was for profit events. The draws at the end were not draws, the organizers just read names from the race list. A lot of people just left, so instead of re-draw to reward people who stayed, the organizers, decided to take all the door prizes and move them to the next year - what a joke! And it was big disappointment for people who stuck around to the end. The loot bag at the beginning of the race was very poor (no t-shirt), there were no "completion of the race" medals, I saw couple of people with medals, asked them where did they get them, they said they bought them.
