Comments: There was a good number of first time athletes and all levels of performance. The director provide $50 gift certificates to the final male and female finishers. The final female came in near the end of the awards ceremony. The RD roared over the loud speaker to give it up for the final finisher and she won the prize. My husband said, "how humilliating." However, I believe we are all winners before the start gun is fired. Less than 1% of the population ever enters an endurance event. When you toe the line you have already beaten 99% of the potential field. We are all winners and deserve to be proud.
