Not sure why anyone would be so angry at the 5k and 15k being replaced with an 8k. 8k is only 1.9 miles more than a 5k, if someone is complaining about a couple more miles they shouldn&#39;t be doing an OCR. Secondly, elites do the 8k course twice, making it 16k, and there is still the option of battlefrog extreme for those with ultra endurance. As for dropping sunday races, that&#39;s just economics, so get over it (not you specifically, people in general).
