Another base race.  We had the opportunity to win a ham.  Rebecca ran with the running stroller.  There was a guy at the beginning that did some kind of weird pretend yawn.  I don't know if he was trying to make it seem like he was hot stuff but he wasn't yawning 200 meters down the road.  We enjoyed the race but I found it strange that all of the award winners were male.  I then realized that no females were recognized in the age groups.  I approached the directors afteward to inquire as to why.  They said that they just grouped everyone together in the age groups and didn't separate male and female.  They said that was last race but not this race.  I was a bit taken aback and I told them that they can't just combine male and female into age groups.  They became defensive and one said "We'll take that into consideration."  Umm really?  I guess they can contact Olympics and let them know that there shouldn't be separate categories for male and female.  That makes sense.
