ReplyDeleteTo anonymous who commented above :- i don't think there is any need to be insulting or sarcastic, in fairness. These people organise these trail runs voluntarily, giving of their own time, so that us runners can enjoy the race.
ReplyDeleteLike the rest of us, they don't always get everything right, so if some tape was left afterwards, by all means draw their attention to it, but i don't think there is any need to use adopt the attitude you did. No one deliberately did it.
I'm sure it will be rectified pretty quickly.
Thanks to the likes of Rob Williams, John Walshe and all the other volunteers around Munster, us runners are totally spoiled for choice when it comes to races.
Thank you to you all - us runners are always grateful for the time you give arranging these races.
Keep up the good work.
all the tape that was left on Mount Hillary hasn't been removed yet any chance of getting it removed
