Race Reports for Heart Center of the Rockies Half Marathon

Race Reports for Heart Center of the Rockies Half Marathon 2007

[1]

Comments: Only 2 aid stations on this course, but you saw them both twice, so about every 3 miles. Poor post race activities. Only pancakes to eat, but no water or gatorade to be seen and no fruit. I had left my jacket tied around a tree at the start and when I went back to get it, it was gone. I was told they collected all the clothing from the race already and were taking it to Runners Roost in Ft. Collins(about a 2 hour drive for me). I can't figure out why they didn't take it to the finish.

Comments: Nothing going on after but eating pancakes, which I can't eat so Ted had mine. Awards were gift certs for Runners Roost which was decent. No massage, few booths, no music. But it was a pretty run and a beautiful day after the sun warmed things up a bit. Seemed like a lot of confusion over who actually ran the half since some people bailed and did the 10k instead and didn't tell the race people. Also, hardly anyone stayed to the right of cones, so how far did they run? Maybe it didn't make much difference. Timing chips would have helped, but for $35 I got a cool shirt and a good run w/ nice people. Had fun chatting w/ other runners along the way. Fun to meet Drew, Kathy & Trixie! Yay! Finished in top 34% in my AG, top 47% of all women.
