Comment: First of all, the death of the runner is tragic. Period. However, all of this knee jerk, gotta-change-something-now reactionary posturing from the risk adverse members of our community is a waste of time and energy. The likelyhood of this kind of thing happening again is exceedingly remote. Making drastic changes to race protocols is both unnecessary and unwarranted. History proves it. Lightening strikes once in awhile. Onward.
