execution apology

You may remember a recent post about being misguided & lost at the Chiang Mai half marathon? The race director wrote an apology on the website. It's a little confusing but reads:

Dear, All runners.

From the confusion of the race route Chiang Mai marathon on December 26, 2010 caused by the failure of officials in the way some say the wrong path.
Because the group is leading runners run long path can not run to the finish line.
The organizing committee Chiang Mai marathon so sorry and apologize all runners who have been affected by the execution of the duties of this committee.

Best Regards,
Mr Sayu Somdulyawat
Race Director Chiangmai Marathon

Translation? "We screwed up. You ran about 28k instead of 21.1k. You should have placed. So sorry."
No worries. Can I get a free race entry for 2011 and we'll call it even?
