Jim McNemar had this same issue at Mid-Ohio a couple years ago... It's not "un"common.

How are you an instructor? I remember you running in Blue at ECR just a few months back?
The last ECR event (Club race), I ran yellow. I may have started in Blue though, I can't remember! I'm in yellow with PCA but ran in white a few sessions last weekend. I run with the instructors in red with TDE. I'm an "instructor-in-training". Will start going out with students in a few months.
