Marathon a class act

     To the editor:

     I ran the Caribou Half Marathon on Sunday. Caribou can be proud of the tremendous effort, by a small army of volunteers, who hosted the Caribou Marathon and Half Marathon.

     I want to thank the race organizers and sponsors for a well organized event. Safety arrangements and refreshments for runners on the course and after were super. Most of all, the encouragement and hospitality of the volunteers and residents made the miles glide by (except for the hill at the end).

     I’ve marked the 2017 race on my calendar.
