They were very aggressive.

We're talking about being relevant again. I want the Sixers to be on people's tongues again... I want the Sixers to be the basketball team that people want to see.
Everywhere we go, the running community has just embraced this as something Reno has needed for a long time. Marathon runners, for the most part, if they wanted to run a course on roads, had to leave this area.
