First-time success
We're delighted to see that one of our members produced a very successful first-time race.
The Half-Madness 13.1, in Batavia IL, tallied 789 finishers (940 people registered) in its first year.
Next year should be easier. Race organizers will have a participant base, know how much of everything to order, be aware of what worked and what didn't work, and be able to promote a known entity to runners, sponsors, community leaders, local government, and the media.
