Comments: Run started a little late due to many late arrivals picking up their packets and chips right up to the start. I just wanted to get on with it because I had worked overnight the night before and was afraid I'd get tired! Since it was a mass start, I appreciate that they wanted everyone ready to go, and I think the rainy weather contributed to late arrivals. Other than that, race was well organized, quite a few volunteers braving the conditions, a decent post-race buffet and a pretty enthusiastic group of racers! Also, all funds, approximately $17,000 per race organizers, will be going to support cancer programs here in mid-Missouri.
