1st and last

Finished the 5k but there was no "post race party"-only bottled water. Not one organizer at the finish and people were complaining they had switched from half to 5k but no one got their message so their 5k time didn't register. My daughter was one-I told her to take a medal-she paid for it. But she didn't. Great course (thanks BPD), nice glass but my first and last with this one.
