• Comments: 5K-ers weren't allowed to have the food. Able to sneak banana later - volunteers told us they weren't allowed to give it out yet, and couldn't/wouldn't tell us when they could. very lame! only water accessible was bottle given as went thru finish chute; none available later. did have little cups of phillips rest. soup for us - reddish water base with bits of veggie floating in it. only food available, not only required standing in a long line, it reminded me of warm vomit. a lot of hassle for a 5K, esp w/ having to go to the football stadium & navigate parking there for packet pickup - maybe more fun for the 1/2 mar/marathoners, but the 5k seemed like poor stepchild.
