  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The race is not as organized as in past years. E-mails are not sent when promised and many people were not sure of how the buses worked. I don't see why I needed to pay extra for race day packet pick up. It did not seem like they had to go out of their way to make this happen. They could have done this in a tent to avoid renting the space inside the building. The women did not seem to know there were port-o-potties outside. There was a really long line of women waiting to use the indoor restroom. On the course, the race was very well organized. There were plenty of police and EMS visibly controlling traffic and ready to act as needed. There were numerous friendly volunteers at the aid stations and the aid stations were appropriate in their frequency. As a back of the packer, I appreciated the fact that water and gatorade remained available for the duration of the race.
