Jim Clarke,
I wanted to thank you for including your 2 Big Hearts race into the CRS Gold Cup Series.  I love this race, I love the course and what a great cause!  I live in Michigan City however, I run in Long Beach (for the hills).  I used this course as a training run for the Chicago Marathon and used the 'big hill' for hill repeats.  This is definitely my favorite 5K.  See you in May 2008!!
Thanks so much.   
Best Regards / Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Saudações / Saludos,

S. Lee Alvarez
