SAI Timing caught a really bad break with the heavy rains and the improper use of the timing strips by runners. I think the finger-pointing and hysterics by the race director should cease.

It has to do with a number of other reasons: lack of food after the race, boring course, inability of race organizers to keep runners in their correct corrals, etc. I ran the Honolulu Marathon, and while my 10K time was off, the rest of my splits were right on the money.
