Re: IMC 2011 Bib Numbers

Re: IMC 2011 Bib Numbers
what was most disappointing for mr seuss was that the Things were holding the finish banner on the last shift so he missed out on that and a finish line photo.

Re: IMC 2011 Bib Numbers
he spoke to the race director last night at the dinner. she was full of excuses - powerade instead of gatorade meant athletes took more water, and that it was hot so athletes were using it to cool themselves. really - how unpredictable! as she put it "well these things happen - just like a fla...

Re: IMC 2011 Bib Numbers
mr seuss is showing as a DNF, but he might have crossed after midnight and still "finished." Any word? yep - finished at 17:22. tough day at the office. no water at any of the last 4 water stations before Yellow Lake messed with his race plan. had to spend a lot of time at special needs a...

Re: 5 steps to create a new habit
