There was confusion at the start because people couldn't hear when they called the start, so people just sort of started running. There were timing issues and apparently the directors were not concerned about it at all. Plus, to top it off they ran out of water, so a lot of the 10k participants went without. I sent the directors an e-mail, somehow I doubt I'll hear anything back about it.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608105190280518348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5785054866318608168.post-65937090749085253752010-11-26T21:54:50.423-05:002010-11-26T21:54:50.423-05:00That would have sent me into a tizzie... a race ha...That would have sent me into a tizzie... a race has 15 minutes leeway to get the ball rolling. That's insanity. I didn't do the Dallas Turkey Trot because it didn't start until 9... same issue as you, pushes too late into the day on a holiday. That only works if the whole family runs.<br /><br />Congrats on getting in 6 miles... and you ARE a real runner... shuffle or not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5785054866318608168.post-43818580201187914662010-11-26T20:35:56.209-05:002010-11-26T20:35:56.209-05:00Wow - that is really disappointing.

That would throw me off. I mean if I know I run at a time, I need to run at that time for a race! My nerves can't take un-organization like that. Sorry to hear you didn't get to do your race, but it was Thanksgiving -- family and food is much better!<br /><br />p.s... I'd be a pissy bitch, too!Fruit Flyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10747205899650070873noreply@blogger.com
