  • Comments: From here it gets a little crazy. I was first back in, and then Mikey & Brett came in the same way. Then, the next guy comes in from over the bridge (which you could tell he was pissed), and then the guy that I saw in first position on the course came from behind the finish line loop around to cross. It was insane, apparently he got completely lost. The top five all got lost, and ran different routes. After the first five came in, apparently they got the course directions fixed and no one else had any issues. The first round of results that were posted showed me in 1st OA, Mikey 2nd OA, another guy in 3rd OA, Brett in 4th OA (1st Masters), and then guy that looped around the finish line in 5th. I hated to win 1st OA like that, but we all got lost and there was no way to tell if I had ran him down. Actual position meant nothing, since I started in the very back, so we could not go by that. The RD ended up talking to him, and put him as 1st OA and everyone else slide back one spot.

  • Comments: For 1st year, great. They will make the small changes needed to make this a top race. I expect the size to double next year. Hopefully it will fit in my schedule so I can be back.
