I watched the WGN (Chicago) news last night. The race organizers said they had plenty of supplies and had brought in a bunch more the day before to address the heat...then the first groups of runners started coming through the water station and grabbing 5-10 cups of drinking water each to dump on their heads. The later runners were left with nothing.
