I was running the full so didn't get to officially finish or even get near the finish line...I came across your blog by googling for other race stories to help ease the pain I still feel at not becoming a Marathoner on Sunday ;) <br /><br />PS, I think your time should still be made official! You didn't even know they were cancelling it until you were past!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5987556972170753490.post-8841260577649119962012-05-23T08:46:30.751-05:002012-05-23T08:46:30.751-05:00I'm proud of you for sticking it out and finis...I'm proud of you for sticking it out and finishing.

It was a hard call for the race directors to make, but according to the EMTS, there was very little communication and that made things harder. I hope the next race for you runs much more smoothly! :) <br /><br />Sarah<br />www.thinfluenced.comSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429074991314349493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5987556972170753490.post-60725439354644205972012-05-22T08:43:14.114-05:002012-05-22T08:43:14.114-05:00Totally agree on the communication & official ...Totally agree on the communication & official result issues. A lot of problems there. The cancellation was warranted, but could have been handled better. And congrats on the 3 in 90 days.

I was "watching" a marathoner. UP until her very last mile I was getting updates. Then right around the time she would have been crossing the finish line, the Cellcom site changed and said that because of the cancelled race, they weren't giving official times to anyone after 9:25am. BUT yet they were still timing that entire time...They did some things wrong with this cancellation...there's no doubt about it.Sweet and Savory by Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958540100750347527noreply@blogger.com
