Jen, I don’t get it either. Apperently this race would have been ok if the other side of town was inconvenienced. I guess all those people that live on sinatra drive were upset? Also if you did this on a Sunday morning I’m sure somebody would have complained they couldn’t get to their brunch at Turning Point or they had friends in from out of town which couldn’t leave that morning. There will always be complainers and somebody is probably going to be inconvenienced no matter when the event was held.

Thanks Jen, it’s not easy organizing large events like this and many people will benefit from the funds raised.
