  • Comments: Due to transportation issues, the race started at least 15 minutes late. There long lines post-race for the return buses to the offsite parking. The organizers of this event have already sent a couple of communications to all participants acknowledging the transportation problems and they are already working on improvements for 2012.

  • Comments: The shuttles to this race were TERRIBLE. The race started 15 minutes late b/c there weren't enough buses. The parking lot was organized pretty bad. We waited 2+hours to get on the shuttle to leave. It was ridiculous. I am more sore today b/c of standing on a sidewalk for 2 hours than the run. I will not run again b/c of this.
