  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: I'm calling the post race activities average because we couldn't enjoy them. There were some neat things going on including food, Broncos autographs, bands, massages etc but the crowds were so thick we could barely walk and the lines for all of those things were ridiculous.

  • Comments: Really pleased with my pace. I'd wondered how I'd do after such scattered training for the past couple weeks. I actually went about as fast as I did when I was at sea level earlier this week! The run itself was really nice although the section through the park was pretty crowded due to the narrowness of the path. Once we got into the stadium, however, things came to a standstill. We were on the sidelines and the finish line was pretty narrow so there was quite a bit of congestion. I was able to shove my way over the finish line but people behind me had to wait up to several minutes to cross it. Then there was a long slow walk around the end zone in the hot sun and through a chaotic tunnel with people stopping to take pictures with the cheerleaders. The "expo" was on the stadium concourse and was pretty minimal. Food and drinks were available for purchase. I saw a few people with bananas; the only thing I found for free was bottled water, orange Powerade, and Buffalo Wild Wings
