2. Race t-shirts are not only ugly, but they don't fit! Argh.
In all seriousness, I probably won't run it next year. B and I discussed that during the race. We really did chit chat pretty much the entire 10 miles, stopped for a bathroom break around mile 5, stopped at every water point, made conversation with random people around us. It is a beautiful place to run - you'd think after twice weekly training runs along the course for 2 and a half months I'd be sick of the Garden. But no, I went running there yesterday!

Wow! I figure that is not the 6k altitude that the Garden is, it's the added hill elevation on the run that is kicking butt! As they say, "go figger".
I think it's awesome that you log that stuff! I do the same thing! My sister considers me a total geek about tracking my training. You gotta do it though...
Embrace your nerdiness!
I agree with you. The shirt issue was a major hang-up for me. I really do love the Garden of the Gods and I love the race but I think the logistics could have been handled a little better. Despite all that was wrong with this race, I'll continue to show up just for the shear beauty of the course.
I have a blog about this race as well.
