Hard to tell, he had a beard as well.
This was a part of the ECTA sustainability discussion I had with CJ and Steve - how to bring in more participants to the events.
The title "ECTA Arkansas Mile Challenge" can appeal to 3 groups: those who know what ECTA is, those who live in Arkansas / local to the track, and those like me who came in looking for a mile challenge.
This guy was a local (I saw his car in the Lowes parking lot on Thursday when buying my numbers) but didn't know about the event. I invited him out and he came to watch on the Saturday for a while. Now he can tell others he knows etc.
A timely heads-up in the local paper a couple of weeks before the next event could help with spectators and local participants.
