Run in the Country 2010

Another road race was successfully completed last Sunday. Brad and Mark, the better halves to Katy and I were 2 of the 4 race directors for the event. The event, “Run in the Country”, is a ½ marathon that meanders through the Coburg countryside. KAP Art helped with their promotional pieces, including an updated logo, brochures, posters, certificates, medals, and tee shirts. Katy, Missy and I were also at the race bright and early to provide aid station, registration, and clean-up support. What a team!

It is amazing how much work goes into putting together these races. I have a great admiration for all Race Directors, or any Director or Organizer of any event. It seemed there were hoops to be jumped through, city regulations and codes to be met, permits to be acquired, let alone organizing volunteers to cover race day activities.

We had the fun job of creating, but enjoyed being race day volunteers as well. The day came off without a hitch. The runners seemed appreciative and the Race Directors content.
