When I have a bad race experience, I usually don't hurry to sign up the next year. There are a multitude of races that I can choose from locally and race entries are not cheap. Last year, I ran the Go Girl Half and didn't have much positive to say. I won't list all my grievances here, but I did let other runners know that I wasn't running it again.
But they kept sending emails. Kept showing the huge medal. And so many of my running pals were doing it. So I signed up crossing my fingers that it would be better this time.
Thank goodness I gave it a second chance! Course was much improved, support was better, and the post-race food was great! But, the best part was: a new pr by 8 minutes and 27 seconds!! Thank you Go Girl Half for a great race!
The medal is gigantic! You could use it as a weapon!
