Another fine event by RunningKids.net. Everything was lovely until the end. Started off a little late (always drives me nuts). But the race had some great volunteers, excellent course, unbelievable weather, awesome challenges, and over all the four of us had a great time. Bent the rules a little bit with Cmonkey (min-age was 7 - he was 4), but the Adams bike worked well.

My main beef with the race was the unbelievable length of time at the end of the race until awards. All the race notices said that the cut-off time would be 2 hours. We started at 10:00-ish and finished about 11:45. Awards didn’t start until after 1:30 because they were still waiting on a team - 3 1/2 hours later? I understand the desire to be inclusive - but to hold most teams over two hours? This was probably a record in the amount of time from end of race to awards ceremony. I’ve been in many races where the winners were awarded before I finished. It’s not a bad thing.
