> You probably heard most of it. First off, lack of volunteers. There should have been a person at each and every obstacle. I injured myself pretty early on on the course, but noone there to contact emts. Had to walk back to the ambulances, which fortunately I was able to do,others were not so lucky. I ran in the 10 am wave. Got the impression that all the early waves were "full". 9 am wave had about 20-30 people in it, as did 9:20 wave etc. Running out of food and beer, inexcusable. Running out of water and noone manning the water stations - inexcusable. I understand some of the obstacles broke, and if someone had been posted at each obstacle they could have repared it or called for help. Unisex changing rooms - no divider, no signs indicating "Men" and "Women" - inexcusable. Supposed to be a $10.00 parking fee, I had printed off the parking pass but noone checked and noone collecting any fees at the gate when I got there. Very disoganied registration. I got there at 8am, no problem, but lots of people missed their wave times and wound up running later. It was a mob scene later on. Just general disorganization and mismanagement. I understand this was the first time for the new owners but anyone who has ever run in one of these events should have a better understanding of what goes on and how thgings are done. Hopefully things will improve.

> Now I got that off my chest, where do you live. I live in Southern Maine and it was a two hour trip to Louden. I was at Stratton, VT this summer for the RPC race thgere under the former owners and it was excellent, but a 4 hr drive. Obviously you must be in the New England area. Have you run in any of the other mud runs? If so, you would see the difference.
