Rita 's thoughts:

From packet pick-up to receiving the medals and available snacks after the race, the run was very well organized. I was concerned about the split from the half marathoners not being clear, but the race organizers had people pointing the 10K runner in the right direction. The only point of confusion occurred at the underpass where the water main broke. Some people were running over and across LSD, others going through the flooded underpass, and others running up to the street underpass. Since I was completing this race for eligibility timing, the added distance from the flooded underpass was not ideal. Also, the pacers were off, which threw-off my timing. The were significantly slower than their posted times. The swag was not something I would usually wear to exercise in. I have attempted, but the sleeves don't stay pushed up if I get hot and the hood and drawstrings are fairly annoying when running. However, I overall enjoyed this run. It was nice to run by the lake and hear the sounds of the waves. The views of the city were beautiful.
