• Comments: Not really sold on Final Stretch. When they computed bike splits wrong on the results (not a big deal) their official timer responded to an email to me saying, "they seem about right to me given other bike races I've timed, if you have a reason that you think they are wrong then let me know..." Well, they were all 1.2mph off and "about right" just doesn't cut it for me if the person saying it is responsible for accurate timing of an event. Of course I sent a response explaining how to compute d = r*t and solving for r with all conversions included. I never received a reply or thank you for letting them know, but the results were corrected shortly after... ;-)

• Comments: I like this race--probably my favorite. However, I think FINAL STRETCH did the awards incorrectly. Elites in their own wave should be removed from AG rankings as the rules for the MN State Championship Series dictate. Instead, the Elites received AG placing awards.
