  • Comments: Hmm, so for $110 for an oly I was expecting a little more support. Maybe I'm spoiled from the great support at the Emmett race but there was only a couple volunteers at the aid stations and only one would be out there with water, so not ideal if few people back to back, I like 2 waters to throw/drink on me without slowing down. Also, they ran out of chocolate milk for the Half's,none at all and were dissasembling equiment too, thought that wasn't good form. There wasn't any gels offered on the run either which isn't a problem for me on the run but could be for others especially the Half runners. Also, this may be asking too much but I think the RD should have asked the town to patch up that really bad gravel spot on the curve, needs to happen anyway, make some effort to protect the racers, this should be part of their job. On a positive note, the weather was great for my race, not too warm, (def too warm for the Half 85+),no wind or rain and I had a great massage for free, that was lovely.
