  • Comments: Small local race and they had plenty of signs but apparently, some kids decided to play pranks and move some signs the previous evening and they were not able to fix all of them. There was one point where I didn't know where to go but was lucky the other 2 people I was with did. Some other racers got lost and ran an extra 0.2 miles...

  • Comments: This race went very well for a small local race EXCEPT for one flaw. There was a loop on the 15K course that was added and the signs said 5K straight ahead (with an arrow pointing straight) and 15K to the right (arrow pointing right). Race Director made an assumption that it would be obvious that a racer who had finished 1 loop would then go straight to the finish after they finished one loop. The volunteer there wasn't a sharp one either and didn't seem to know what to tell the runners. I know of at least half a dozen people who ended up doing another loop and did not finish (the loop was about 3 miles long). Happy with results though - 2nd Overall Masters (10 seconds behind winner), 1st in AG, and 10th overall for my first Top 10 (yes, it's a small local race with only about 100 participants in the 15K but was still happy to finish in top 10% in my first run race longer than 5K).
