Nice reflection, Dane. wish I had known you were there, but I gather that you left on Saturday. I was working the Yellow Water Stop for the women (miles 6.2,14 and 22), so I too had a nice perspective on the race.1Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093796386516645074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650682453709952164.post-15099529680936625402012-01-17T12:51:17.239-07:002012-01-17T12:51:17.239-07:00Nice recap.

It would have been way better to be there. <br /><br />I have to disagree with you about tightening up the standards. If the race was just about picking the top 3 it shouldn't have even been held.

There is hardly a 50-year-old woman who can run a <b><i>3</i></b>:37, much less a 2:37. Isn't it exciting to be a fan of running??
