They usually put them up the Thursday before and take them down later Saturday or early Sunday. However, the painted mile lines on the ground tend to last through the year, so you can always run it by following those and, of course, the blue line. <br /><br />Looks like they had another great post-race setup this year. I'm sad I wasn't able to participate, but I had to hurry home, as I was co-best manning a wedding at noon in Ann Arbor.

I have only ever run one and it was great fun, I love the mile distance, and I'm planning on hitting the track this coming season for a mile or 2!!! I hope you find another couple of local miles to run, I see a 6:30 and who knows, with a bit of mile training how about a 5:59????<br /><br />nice running, and I see you almost PR'ed in the 10... coach dionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464619260070895703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-12703791003093240982013-08-25T20:46:05.422-04:002013-08-25T20:46:05.422-04:00Yeah, you should have come closer to the front in ...Yeah, you should have come closer to the front in the mile.

I had LOTS of little kids around me and I had to weave in and out of people A TON...even had to hit the sidewalk at one point because there were people walking in lines across the road. <br />The 10 miles were actually really fun! This was my first time doing the Crim (or anything over 7 miles) and I had a great time! I would totally run this again next year!<br />I agree the shirts were a bit disappointing. I signed up for both the races at once and it only asked for my unisex shirt size. I said Medium and received a Women's Medium for the 10 miler along with my 1 mile unisex shirt. The Woman's Medium barely fit me! Luckily though, I saw they had a shirt exchange and was able to get an XL on Saturday.

It's really frustrating when people don't line up where they should, especially in such a short race. I like Trieu's shirt too. I need to sign up for one of the team challenges just to get that shirt, haha. Thanks for another great recap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
