Both the PC Trail Runs and Pacific Association held their awards dinners on the same day this year. Fortunately the PCTR one was a breakfast and the PA one was a dinner.
It was generally easy to get to the PCTR dinner because the directions were very similar to how I go to their race at Mount Diablo. I did spend over 10 minutes looking for the last turn. When I got there most of the people who were coming were already there. People were dressed very casually. As soon as I entered the building I was given 10 raffle tickets. They had at least dozen raffle prizes and each person was allowed to distribute his own tickets as he wanted. I liked this idea very much because I got more chances at the items I was interested in, and didn't patricipate in the items that i wasn't really interested in. However the strategy didn't pay off as it turned out that I didn't win anything.
There were a lot of awards to give out as there were 4 different race series (Trail (under 50k), Ultra (50k), Mini Prix, and Grand Prix). The gave awards to top 3 overall plus top 3 in each age group for each series. There was a lot of photo taking by various people but the only one I ended up getting a copy of only shows my back. After the awards, people got together for a run. I wasn't prepared as I didn't know this was on the agenda but I resovled to remember this for next year so I could participate.
