Obviously Glen317 did not run this event since no one went off course and there were no females on the timing team. If you are going to be critical of an event, you should at least participate in it.

Worst race I've ever run! Running the 10k no official at a critical corner, I went straight. Avoiding the 5k runners was very difficult in the last mile. Then running into the finish I asked an official which way to go and sent me to the wrong timing pad. Talked to the race official after the race to see if I could get my time adjusted, he didn't really seem to care. Talked to a timing official she took my info but no adjustment. I would have been 5th at 37:27.

The course was flat, only one hill. Good traffic control and a good post-race party.

Great Race to start the year off on the right (and left) foot. Well run, organized, and most importantly, friendly people. See you the first day of 2011!

Excellent race! For a first time event, this was very well organized. Baggage check was a nice addition, given the distance to parking. Course was very good. Post race food was excellent. I plan to return next year. Thanks!

It was a tremendously well run event. I'm being repetitious, but I was extremely satisfied with the email notifications, tech shirt, parking. Not able to comment on food and band. Needed to be back home in RI for a New Year's Day family dinner. Would love to come back to run the 10K (I did the 5K).

Excellent race. Well organized. Nice shirts, good food, good band and plenty of parking. Loved the email notifications before and after the race. I'll be there next year.

Loved the event!!! Great shirts, but wished they had kid's sizes. 9 members of my family ran the race and we had a great time. Well organized, plenty of parking, and good food and entertainment. Definitely plan on doing it again next year.
