What was up with that uphill finish & post race???? If there were swag tents and refreshements somewhere, I missed it while being herded along. I saw some tents off to the side, but they were behind some large fences with very few people going in - as if (it appeared from a distance) you had to have credentials to get in. Strange. Otherwise, great race!! Good shirt this year too.

Imminent Catastrophe

Yeah, the fenced-off food booths were strange. Some of the portajohns were padlocked, to. What's up with that? I though it got pretty hot and humid after Cardiac Hill and that bonus hill at the finish was tough. 50:30, and I was hoping for sub-50 to be seeded 1A next year. Oh well, 1B is almost as good.

This was my first 10k (I prefer 5Ks). I was not crazy about the entire last 3 miles being up hill. I did it in 47:30 but was not really happy with it but oh well...there is always next year. Also, I thought he post race activities or lack there of were pretty lame.

It was my 19th consecutive P'tree. Time of 52:30. Have not run for time in about 10 years. Goal time of 51:00. The last .5 mile change from a downhill to rolling hills. P'tree is probably an 8 out 10 for difficulty. 55,000 runners. It's a party. The gated areas were for ATL TRACK CLUB AND ATL JOURNAL AND CONSTITUTION EMPOYEES ( race sponsors). I enjoyed the band. www.atlantatrackclub.org/pdf/08prr-elevation.pdf

Run until the trail runs out.

The booths were for the Gay Pride festival.
