I hope they run it better than in the past. The year I did it I had the kids in joggers and shit so I wasnt going after any PR's but the finish line was backed up about 50 yards, so you stopped there and waited about 5 minutes before you could finally get thru the finish.

no way they have a 5,6,7 minute etc corral per the website.
strollers go in the back. I swear
eg miguel vasquez, last years age group winner 32:24 /5:13 pace, the 5k age group winner went 16:10
per yelp I'd better start at the back of corral 1 [6:00 -- 7:xx 10k pace] even if that is a little bit of a reach and would require a PR from me to maintain. Else the price to pay is strollers and walkers for 2 miles

lol, I'm sure you're the ONLY one that will think to move a corral up(or have no clue what they're capable of)...
One person, who's actually fast, setting a good time, is quite different than you.
Big events are good for drinking/being a goof. Not going fast. The best fast races are teh smallest ones.

Big races are totally fine for "racing"...you just gotta start at the front and not get all pissed when a 10 year old is trying to block you...right Donnie?
It's been several years since I've done our local turkey trot. Combination of either training or recovering from other races and not wanting to spend $30 on a shitty t-shirt and no official timing. /snob

I bring the family out for the original (and still the best lol).

Going to meet up with a few coworkers and do the 5K/10K combo. Then run with the kids. 11.3 miles down before Thanksgiving dinner. Woot!
Oh, and Chris they actually time the event in Dana Point. You should come on out!

Wewt good luck. I kinda can't wait tbh. A solid (for me) 10k is the last item on my list this year I haven't checked off
