When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

I think the volunteers needed a bit of training as well to prefill more cups, as each aid station was a log jam waiting on them to fill cups. I'm glad they took time out of their day to help out, but I'll bet almost every runner lost at least a minute or two due to waiting on water. I skipped the first couple of aid stations for this reason. I may or may not do this one again.

Sounds like it was otherwise a really nice race. A technical singlet and hat for a $20 race seems unheard of! Heck, I have yet to find a wicking hat for much under $20--good deal!

When the race was over, I found a pamphlet under my wipers for a 10k/20k race that has a similar deal. Looks like I may have to plan that one for September.
Was there a good turn out? I think there were only 200 people when I did the hm over there.
Congratulations, Bonkin! I had a disappointing 5k at White Rock today, but because it was a small race and so many people were at Too Hot to Handle yesterday, I ended up winning 5th in my age group (ha ha, what a laugh). Nice job, especially so soon after El Scorcho.
Hmmm...I think I need to consider TX for some destination races! A 20k would be a really great distance!
