Carrera de los Muertos

I just ran this again yesterday and found it to be much better organized that it’s inaugural race. Word must be getting out about this event because there was probably three times the entrants that the first event drew, but it only made for a more festive day. Music and the smell of the Mexican cuisine filled the air throughout the day and only intensified the fun I had with my two fellow runners yesterday and we all agreed, they still have the best race Ts in the business.
I hate to end a positive review with a negative, but I think other fellow runners would have the same reaction as I did so I’ll treat this statement as advice instead of as a complaint. When you finish a race, normally the organizers have free water and bagels or fruit available to replenish fluids or carbs you just lost while running. Here, you must pay for them. It IS a charity (and a GOOD one), so I understand the need. My advice? Take advantage of the free water on the course ’cause there ain’t none behind the finish line.
