  • Comments: I gotta say a couple of things about the way the race was set up. For the most part it was great…the kids out there volunteering were very capable and the nice lady at the run turnaround…I want your NUMBER. But there were NO mile markers save the one on the run at 6 miles. And then, ok, you know what? Go ahead and make your money for putting on a race…but don’t slap me in the face at the end and tell me I have to pay 5 bucks for each kid to eat some oranges and a fruit cup. Give me a break. I said so too. I said a bit too loudly, “It’s oranges…not gasoline, fer chrissakes.” The poor volunteer relented and gave me two plates, even though I hadn’t asked her to break the rule…I was just whining…but then she came over to where I was sitting and took my race number without saying a word. Hmmmmm.
