The carnival and the parade and even the Frostbite Foot Race, I mean there are some outdoor events that do very well when it's warm like this.

We sort of just deal with it and go on and try to make the best out of a not-so-good situation and make sure that the events that are happening are successful.

It is very much a bummer.

It's a big draw both for local folks and visitors coming into town. So it's just hugely disappointing not to have them.

It would be nice to grab first place in both events. If I run a great race tomorrow I can finish top of the 200 as well.

You're only allowed to do two events each, so we targeted this race and the 4x400. We felt we could run a time similar to two years ago and it just worked out that they ran very well.
