      Congrats.

       

      I have come across some majorly ticked off people wrt the misdirection.  Glad to read/hear a positive spin.

       

      Here is my favorite "whaaaaa?"comment from the runners world message board:

       

      >> "As an active duty Air Force member, it hurts that many people will judge the Air Force as a whole because of this gaffe."

       

      Man.  I'm pretty sure that "many people" can differentiate between an ooops in a race and a group of fine people who help defend our country.

      And once again Mr. Wizard (aka: Stevie Ray) explains the internet.

        Well, if the Army had been organizing it this wouldn't have happened.  Wink KIDDING, of course.

         

        I can understand why people might be a little upset. That said, there are no perfect people so stuff happens. I was so happy to be running and feeling good that I just didn't mind. 

         

        I passed a small unit running in their gear. As they went by, all the runners cheered and clapped.  I think there are plenty of folks out there who get it.
