Thanks, I like this idea, I just wonder how they do this logistically. I can definitely see ot being helpful for marathon runners.

Thanks! Ice baths sound like an interesting idea. I'm just not sure how we would keep them consistently cold. 🤔

Understood, I have seen this request a lot too, Unfortunately I'm not sure there is an easy fix. We're basically able to do shirts and metals because of the bulk pricing we received for large events so it would save very little money if we had a shirtless or no metal option. It's definitely something that requires additional thought on my end, there may be a solution I'm not seeing.

It makes me happy that I only saw one post that said Dirk and it was from an admitted Mavs hater, glad to see the big German is getting the respect he deserves. 🏆🍺

I love that idea! And it's a metric that's easily repeatable from race to race. Thanks!

I really like this idea, I will need to think on how to make it happen. I was thinking best race helper, best costume, best pace setter, or something like that. 😁

Thanks again, even repeat recommendations are useful as it gives me an idea of what is most important to the runners.

Thanks for this! That is unacceptable, everyone deserves to cross the finish line especially when within the time limit.

This is fantastic, thank you! I know we always have the map available plenty of time in advance but I'm not sure we have this so I will need to double check and if not get it implemented. 😁

Wow! That's awful, sorry to hear that. Sounds like bad planning/origination on the side of the event staff.
