This was our 5th and final time running this race. We've always loved Running with the Bulls but this year wasn't my favorite. I went in hoping to run a sub 17. Unfortuately there was some confusion during packet pickup because multiple people were given the wrong bib numbers. I guess they were just handing them out randomly for the 5k runners. This caused a big problem and the race ended up starting very late. They decided to change the course this year and I was not a huge fan of it. It started out with lots of zig-zagging on wet roads which was not fun at the start of the race. The course also had the addition of a decent uphill about a half mile in. It used to just be very flat the whole way. I was by myself most the time just following the biker. I managed to break 17 but only because the course was a tenth of a mile short. Guess this is what normally happens when the organizers change annually and when they're not runners. Still fun.
