Some things worth reporting about Mud Run


January 18, 2013 · Updated 12:28 PM 

Regarding the recent article about the Extreme K Mud Run (“Davis’ suit says injury forced her to step down,” page A1, Jan. 11 Herald):

As a news organization, would it not also be a good story to tell how a non-profit organization put together a fund-raiser to help boost the economy of Kitsap County and give money to local needs, such as food, housing and getting people back to work? That the organizers thought that they would only have a few hundred participants and the result was almost a thousand? That the money that would have gone to charities now has to go to fighting a lawsuit?
