      I personally did not feel it fair that the people who ran in the coolest part of the day and the shortest distance recieve all the waterbottles and gatorade they and their families could pack off to the car. Having trudge thru my 1/2 desperately wishing for my own water belt, I stagger across the finish line to find very slim pickings at "buffet" Hot, tired, chaffed , and weary, the only cups of water to be had were in tiny paper cups . Very discouraging that the people who ran the most had the least by the time they were done. I also wish the medal had Tn somewhere on it. On a plus side the scenery was very scenic, I enjoyed the frog song and the tropical start off. Would have been a bit more enjoyable if the water stations on the route hadn't run out of gatorade. Maybe a few more water stops. Nice course, neat experience finishing up on the jumbotron hearing my name. Collapse
