Ran out of tech size small shirts at packet pickup. Race morning start times delayed 5mins due to race morning registrants. Kids ran first, then 10K then 5K although I believe according to the website 5K was to start first. Very chilly morning. Police better course monitors than some of the younger volunteers in terms of enthusiasm. Mile markers could be better. Race medal decent size, not a coaster, but in full color. This race location has moved from Elk Grove Regional Park to the Auto Mall/Cosumnes Oaks High now to Long Leaf, where the springtime Running of the Elk also takes place. Vendors limited post race. Parking ok. Much less crowded than Run to Feed the Hungry in Sacramento.
