Why are there still so many garbage races in 2014?
Races that exist solely to fund some company and/or their race director.
Sometimes they contribute a measly tiny tiny percentage to charity to deflect criticism too.
You know the races and there's no need to name them in these litigious times.
Why are they still around? Why are there more of them popping up. Why are runners still paying for them?
