OKMRC put out their request for EMTs, etc for today as they do every year, hard to work out the logistics with the fam and the race to volunteer as of now.

There like 4 pages on tornadoes. She on the 2nd or 3rd page. Huge picture of her cant miss it.
My daughter ran the 1/2 in 2:20. My son hasn't been able to run much lately due to w*rk.
So, how'd they do, Bobby? What'd they run?
Both ran the 5k..........they both said the 5k was full of people walking it and it clogged things up, but it's for the fundraising and not the times I guess. Daughter ran her slowest 5k ever by over 5 minutes, first time over the 28 minute mark.......she said she must have actually run a 10k, because of weaving from one sidewalk to the other trying to get through the people walking lol. She's super competitive, so she was a little bumed.......she'll get over it

The race management need to make a rule that the walkers stay on one side or the other and let the runners run their race without being encumbered.
This is why they have corrals in the larger races, like the half and full marathon races of the weekend.
The only running I do is behind a bird dog, so I have no idea about how these things are run. I did race MotoX for 15 years or so, and if somebody gave out or was just slow, they were required to remain in the slow lane and not interfere with the racers still competing or get black flagged which meant removal from the track immediately.
They do have the corrals, and slower runners were supposed to be at the back................seemed that worked well for the marathon/half marathon runners as they came through, didn't look like that was the case with 5k. When there's 5,000 people in the 5k, probably hard to know where the "fast to slow" transition line is lol. Walkers stay on the right would definitely work better though.
Did the "fool" 5:13 I am hurting, but can still walk. LOL My first full marathon. did the half last year.
Should have started serious running while much younger.
