There doesn't seem to be much Jingle Run discussion going on, so I guess I'll start it up. I thought this was a great race. It was my first time running the course, and it has quickly become one of my favorites. The course was very nice. My praise goes out to Dennis Mickey and rest of the race officials for doing a great job at keeping things moving. Even with the kids' fun run after the 5K things moved along smoothly. A few other Allegany XC guys showed up, so it was a good time. So, as a final thought, did anyone else notice Santa Clause behind the wheel of a mini van at the start of the race?

I thought the course was great compared to last year. Dennis did a great job with having so many people to help out on the course. I did notice Santa Clause in the van. It almost made me stop running.

Obviously, I loved the race. It would have been great to see what all of us could do if there was no wind in your face the final mile. I was glad that there were people at the two-mile mark. Although, if I go through the two-mile at a race in 10:10, usually the people there make a comment such as "Holy Crap!" I was very surprised at this race when I split 9:33 and the people there didn't even blink. I liked being chased by the dog at the end as well - it really made me pick it up to the finish.

Sorry guys, I can't take credit for most of what was done. Coach Amanda Moreland and her great cross country parents deserve credit for a great race. They have worked very hard to make the race a good one. Let's hope we can keep the race going.
