Some constructive feedback for next year.
There were some clear issues with this race. 1. The location on the website is listed as “Amite La.” A street address and parking instructions would have helped. 2. It started at 8am when festival isn’t until noon. We didn’t stay for festival. That’s money lost. 3. We were on the wrong side of the arch for starting. You are supposed to cross the time bar at start then again at the end. 4. Glad the people of Amite drive slow because streets were not full blocked off and there were no course signs. There were people to direct us so that was good. Course was otherwise great. 5. There were no refreshments or entertainment for after; not even for purchase. We left. 6. Which church service were we supposed to wait around for an hour to attend? 7. Weather was great, singer was amazing and everyone was really nice. Looking forward to next year and a better overall experience.

Grandparents
Please get the distance correct 5k is 3.1 miles not 3.4….. This makes a big difference to a lot of runners. Your age groups are terrible! If you want kids to participate then make age groups so they get awards! 10 under , 14 under 16 under 18 under Get your local high, middle school teams involved Oak Forest was well represented make a point to invite all local school running programs! Roseland, Sumner all have running programs! Have a 1 mile fun run! Time it and give awards! Young kids run and parents and grandparents come out to watch and spend money!
