Reply from Finishline

I have received two email reply from the Finishline folks and I would like to post it here for you to read. I was glad I heeded the advice of Sir Ipe aka Kinderdorf in posting in our e-group the Happy Feet, for they replied in my post there.

Here is the first email I received from Erick Pasion asa Passion Runner:

Hello Let.

This is Eric aka Passion Runner. I moderate the site of Rio. The comments come in but it takes time for them to go through all of them and the organizers, Rio and his staff only view the comments section the day after they post the results. Do know that they review all the comments and try as quickly as possible to respond to all of them. Now, it's been only one day and perhaps they just have a lot of post-race matters to attend to. Please do not think that they are ignoring you or disregarding your comment. I will forward your concern to Rio, Vince and the technical staff in charge of the race results. They will surely get back to you on this.

Regards,

Eric

And this one from Vince Mendoza:

With a big event such as running or any event that an organizer have, they should expect problem to arise and be ready to act on. There are also other runners whose name was not in the race result, so I'm hoping that they will get back to us as soon as they can. And BTW, thanks to Eric and Vince for replying.
