Course Planner: Mike Minium
Thanks to all
volunteers who helped with this event especially Rex Settlemoir
(photography), Noa Dannaker and the Grissoms (control pickup).
Several others helped set up and take down the start and finish banners
and unload/load equipment. Thanks to
all.
The weather was nearly
perfect for an urban run, sunny but cool enough for runners to avoid serious
overheating or dehydration.
I try to make questions
as unambiguous as possible, but sometimes people still get confused (not
necessarily by their own fault). The
Veteran’s graves in the cemetery are always challenging because there are so
many veteran graves. Eugene Frasur was the most difficult this year – the plaque with
his name and service record was only on the back side of the monument, and
there were many other veteran graves next to each other.
Other controls that
gave people the most difficulty included 12 by the grain elevators (people
looked at the adjacent building), 27 the elementary school door number on the
NE side of the building (people looked on the SW side instead), 5 (people
looked at a nearby marker post instead of the corner post of the fence), and 28
(people wrote down the name of the author instead of the book title).
