You think that your race was uneven prize distribution. I recently did a half marathon. I got second overall. and got absolutly nothing other then the finisher medal. First place got $500. I admit that i was a little disapointed But my time was over 6minutes off my PB. So it wasent that big a deal. You say that you had a great race, so why then are so disapointed that you got a bag of stuff for getting second in your age group.
