  • Comments: Great local race. The race started a little late but that was a deliberate action by the RD due to the rain. Post race set up was good, just a little crowded since it was in the parking garage due to the weather. Had several runners going for Olympic qualifying times due to the fast downhill course. The weather didn't help them any.

  • Comments: There is something to be said for home field advantage and a flatter course. I don't know if it was that I am familiar with the whole course or what, but it seemed to go by quickly. The event was very well organized with the exception of the start. I don't know how people missed that the start wasn't at Phillips this year as it seemed pretty clear to me. Waiting 15 minutes extra in the rain for the start was not fun! Overall, I was really happy with my race!

  • Comments: The only gripe I had about the race was that the starting line scene was very disorganized. The parking lot only had 8 port-a-potties and a lot of people thought that would be the only ones avaialble. But, there were tons more at the starting line. Also, no one said where the bag drop-off would be and everyone made their way to the starting line assuming that it would be there. Good thing it was!
