  • Comments: started a little too fast, should have pushed a little more at the end; parking was no problem - Stacy and I left home around 7:05 - could easily have picked up race packet this morning (Stacy was nice to pick mine up yesterday)

  • Comments: Great 5K race. Don't really have much to compare it to, as this was my first 5K. But it was a great day, and what more could I ask for?

  • Comments: Very good race to come and show what you have at this distance. The course is not easy, and the field is extremely competitive. (World records have been set here) Unless your PR is really soft, I would not come and expect to break it. Come definitely come and race, you won't be dissapointed. Oh, and the AG/Gender groups race in Heats. If you come with friends in different divisions, you will not be racing with them. I will be a spectator next year as this race is the day after IMCal but my SO and some friends will still be racing it. (So I will be a sherpa/cheering squad)
