This race has a 40 year long history and I was looking forward to it. There were unmanned water stations (jugs on the ground) and 6 aid stations a long the way. Spread out but I thought that would be enough to run without anything.
Aid station 7.5 was missing, just water jugs on the ground.
13.5 had some peanut pretzels, water and a weird electrolyte drink and some weird bars.
21.5 was non existing. I had to walk because I ran out of energy. An aid station came after 24.5 I think.
29.5 had luckily 2 bananas on the table, otherwise the table was blank. The lady pulled out some Gatorade and some beer from a cooler. This was supposed to be a full aid station but just a blank table with 2 bananas? Really?
35 was the same as 13.1, now manned by a fat guy bossing two kids around. They had nothing to eat so I moved on.
Just before 39, a support car asked me if I needed something and I got a gel which was highly appreciated.
This was by far the most pathetic aid stations I have seen in my life. And this was a fully organized event for $116 not a fat ass. I was highly disappointed, the race director just laughed at me at the finish when I told him the aid stations where not there.
Obviously I would not recommend this race.
The next regular one
