Context: We only were there for a limited time this visit , long enough to take in the weekly summer farmer 's market and to go out to eat at the Loop restaurant . We were hopefully that the Kilroy clan would be able to join us for a day at the Folks Fest , but the start of school and Chris 's annual participation in the Pikes Peak run prevented them from driving up . Chris did manage to once again run the Pikes Peak Ascent , a 13.32 mile , 7,815 ft . ascent up the side of the mountain , this year in pretty hideous conditions .

Question: What would have happened if Chris did not take part in the Pikes Peak run ?
Options:
0. Chris would feel dejected at not being able to improve his time as he has done in previous years
1. None of the above choices .
2. The Kilroy clan would have been able to join us for the Folks Fest even if just for a shorter time because of school starting
3. Chris would have had to wait another year to be able to take part in the race again
Answer: 2
