  • Comments: As usual Setup Events put on a great race. I was a little disappointed in the new awards policy in which they eliminated the Elite class. Now they just give awards out to the top 3 overall and the rest get put into their respective AGs. Its going to make getting a podium spot much harder. Just have to train more.

  • Comments: There was the usual barbeque after this race, which I don't eat. I got my plate for my fiance. By the time we got through the line, the mac and cheese was gone. That's probably my only complaint. Setup usually does a good job, and they did this time, too.

  • Comments: Good first time race, and a good one to start the year to check your levels. I improved this year in my times, but I know that I have to run a lot more if I plan on doing a half!

  • Comments: This was a fun race, very well staffed and planned. I said not enough drink stations, but that's just me, I drink A LOT. I cramp on a 5k without 2 or 3 drinks, I sweat like a machine. Normal people are probably happy with the aid stations on this race.
