<span style="font-size: large;"><b>I've run a lot of road races.&nbsp;</b></span><div><br /></div><div>I'm not bragging, it's just a fact. In 2014 alone I did just shy of 40 races (and would've done more if I hadn't <a href="http://50.87.248.94/~sothisj4/?p=62" target="_blank">broken my knee</a>). I've run in my state and others. Road, trail, mountain, OCR..."big races", local "little guys", and everything in between. Some are terrible, many are good, some are GREAT.<br /><br />And one proves itself to be the best, to me, year after year.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Almost two years ago I put together criteria for what makes a great race - <a href="http://50.87.248.94/~sothisj4/?p=54" target="_blank">"5 Keys To A Great Race"</a>, I called it. Narragansett Summer Running Festival nails it in all 5.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>Post-Race</u></b></div><div>It's funny, as I refresh myself on what exactly each of those 5 categories entailed...I used a picture from 'Gansett for the "Post-Race" category.&nbsp;</div>
