Why exactly is there talk of altering the Whiskey Row 10k course? Tell me
it's not about a hill.This course has it's own characteristics which make it
Whiskey Row. Should we try to change the Brownlow course too? I don't think
so. If there's a change, all the past times will be as if they never
existed. I vote to leave the course as-is. More training, less whining!
